Without private hospital cover, add $2,697 a year
$179,816 is above the $105,000 Medicare levy surcharge threshold for a single in 2026-27, so a year without hospital cover costs an extra $2,697 at 1.5% - taking take-home pay to $125,921. A basic hospital policy for less than that leaves you in front, and the surcharge buys you nothing. Family thresholds are roughly double and rise with each child, so a spouse changes the answer - run it with your own situation.
On a 40-hour week, $91 an hour is $189,280 a year before tax. Casual loading, overtime and penalty rates sit on top of the base rate - drop your real numbers into the calculator for the exact picture.
