Talking Business With Alan Kohler

Mark joined nib health funds limited in October 2002 as Chief Executive Officer and led nib through its demutualisation and listing on the ASX in 2007. Mark is a Director of nib holdings limited as well as its subsidiary boards. We spoke with him a few years back and thought it might be a good time to revisit the state PHI sector particularly with Mark’s strong opinions on our healthcare system. Mark went out on a limb recently and discussed potential changes to the universal health care system that many Australians seem to unanimously support – was that a mistake or do we need to recognise that our nation’s healthcare system is not that healthy after all? He nominates the key factors that would improve the Australian healthcare system.
