Health insurance is often a mandatory requirement for working and non-working visas, but the benefits of health insurance extend beyond the legal requirements of your visa and can offer you peace of mind, choice and an affordable way to help look after your health.
Additionally, access to Medicare through a Reciprocal Health Care Agreement (RHCA) may not be enough as Medicare only helps with your health care costs if your treatment is classed as medically necessary by your doctor.
