How It Works
How this is calculated
- 1
The Medicare levy is 2% of taxable income, reduced for low-income earners below the upper threshold.
- 2
If you don't have appropriate private hospital cover, the Medicare levy surcharge may apply based on your income for MLS purposes.
- 3
Surcharge tiers differ for singles and families, with family thresholds increasing for each dependent child after the first.
