ahm has similar benefits to other home insurance brands but some stand-out features include flood cover as standard and up to $5,000 for guest contents - that’s almost twice the industry average.
ahm is one of the more expensive brands on the market, with our cost research showing cover costs an average of $2,684 - more than $600 higher than the industry average of $2,044. However, existing ahm and Medibank health members can get 20% off their premiums, which would make the policy more affordable.

Hollard Insurance, which underwrites ahm home insurance, was the subject of 287 home insurance complaints and 149 home contents complaints in the last financial year. However, Hollard underwrites insurance for many other brands, including CBA, Australian Seniors and Real Insurance, so some of these complaints will likely be related to other brands.
