I already have a health insurance from my company but the mynapoints campaign has a step to make mynumber as a health insurance. Is there an effect on my company’s health insurance?
If I apply the mynumber Health Insurance do I now pay two health insurances?

My Number doesn’t have a different insurance policy. The government is planning to get rid of the current insurance *cards* in 2024 and people will use their My Number card instead. The campaign is to get people to switch early.
No. My number can just be used in lieu of the paper card you have now: it’s the same insurance system.
By the way, I’m holding off from switching to using my My Number card for insurance because many clinics are not yet set up to use the My Number card.
It’s just as ID.

No, you have misunderstood the campaign. The campaign is to link your existing health insurance to your MyNumber card. It’s not making a new insurance, and it will not change your insurance in any way.
