Novated Leasing for Nurses and Healthcare Workers
Make the most of your salary packaging
Nurses, doctors, paramedics and other healthcare workers often have some of the best salary packaging available. Public and not-for-profit hospitals and ambulance services have an FBT exemption of up to $17,000 per employee, and charities and community health services can have up to $30,000. A novated lease can sit alongside your existing salary packaging and lower your tax even further.
Why healthcare workers choose a novated lease
- Pay for your car and running costs from your pre-tax salary.
- No GST on the purchase price of the car.
- Fuel or charging, servicing, tyres, rego and insurance in one regular payment.
- Shift work friendly: we work around your roster and deliver the car to you.
Electric cars: an extra saving
Eligible electric cars are exempt from FBT and do not use up your salary packaging cap. That makes an electric car novated lease especially good value for healthcare workers. The full exemption applies until 31 March 2027, and continues for eligible EVs under $75,000 after that.

Frequently asked questions
Can I have a novated lease as well as my hospital salary packaging?
Usually yes. A novated lease is one of the benefits you can package. A car may use part of your cap depending on your employer, but an eligible electric car is FBT exempt and does not.
What if I change hospitals?
If your new employer offers salary packaging, the novated lease can usually move with you. Otherwise you can pay the lease directly until you decide what to do.
Do you work with public hospital staff?
Yes, where the hospital allows employees to choose their novated lease provider. Some public health services use a set provider, so check with your payroll team.
