Variations

16. APRA may, in writing, vary the reporting requirements of this Reporting Standard in relation to a private health insurer.

Transition

17. A private health insurer must report under the old reporting standard in respect of a transitional reporting period. For these purposes:

old reporting standard means the reporting standard revoked in the determination making this Reporting Standard; and

transitional reporting period means a reporting period under the old reporting standard:

1. which ended before 31 March 2026; and
2. in relation to which the private health insurer was required, under the old reporting standard, to report by a date on or after the date of revocation of the old reporting standard.

Note: For the avoidance of doubt, if a private health insurer was required to report under an old reporting standard, and the reporting documents were due before the date of revocation of the old reporting standard, the private health insurer is still required to provide any overdue reporting documents in accordance with the old reporting standard.
