17 Kinds of pilot projects
The kinds of pilot projects specified for subsection 55‑15(2) of the Act are projects that enable an insurer to trial and develop, with a limited group of policy holders, new models of service delivery or health care. The objectives of the pilot project must be for any or all of the following:
(a) to increase the value to consumers of their health insurance products by better meeting their needs;
(b) to prolong health, improve quality of life and reduce expenditure on hospital benefits by preventing and reducing disease and prevent the need for hospitalisation;
