UNDERSTANDING OVERSEAS VISITORS HEALTH COVER



Does Australian Unity offer health insurance that satisfies the Australian
Government's visa condition 8501 (to maintain adequate health insurance)?

Under some visas, you may be required to meet condition 8501. Condition 8501
means that you must have and maintain adequate health insurance for the whole of
your stay in Australia. All our Working Visitors Covers meet condition 8501.
None of our current Non-Working Visitors Covers meet these requirements.

Do I need overseas visitors health cover?

It depends on your type of visa and the visa conditions. For some visas, it is a
compulsory requirement to have health insurance while you are in Australia. You
can check visa conditions at homeaffairs.gov.au.

Even if health insurance is not a requirement of your visa, it’s still a smart
idea. Illnesses and accidents can happen at any time, and medical expenses in
Australia can add up. Getting health insurance can help pay for medical costs,
giving you peace of mind. We have overseas visitors health cover to suit many
different budgets and needs.

What’s included?

Overseas visitors health cover can help pay for some or all medical costs while
you’re in Australia. What services are covered will depend on which product you
buy. Services may include:

 * Doctor and specialist fees
 * Hospital treatment, including accommodation and theatre fees
 * Emergency ambulance
 * Day surgery and procedures
 * In-hospital pharmacy
 * Prescription medications from the chemist




For a full list of inclusions, limits, exclusions and waiting periods that may
apply, read the Fact Sheet and our Member Guide.

Overseas visitors health cover generally doesn’t include health services like
dental, physiotherapy, and optical. Speak to one of our consultants about Extras
health insurance which you can purchase to help cover some of these costs.

How do I make a claim/get my money back for medical expenses?

For services such as visiting a doctor or specialist, you can claim online or
send us a copy of your receipt with a claim form by mail.

If you have to go to hospital, the hospital will usually contact us directly to
process your claim, so you won't receive a bill for your treatment if you are
covered.

Find out more about lodging a claim.

How do I receive my confirmation letter?

Once you select and purchase an overseas visitors health cover from Australian
Unity, you will automatically receive your confirmation letter by email. Please
provide a valid email address to ensure the letter reaches you.

Can I purchase health insurance on behalf of someone else?

Yes you can.

If you also want to help them manage their cover, you'll need to get them to
complete a Delegated Authority form. This form takes less than 5 minutes to
complete and gives Australian Unity consent to deal with both the person who
holds the health insurance and you as their representative (delegated
authority).

You can learn more about Delegated Authority here.

Can a relative or friend manage my membership for me?

Yes. Just complete the Delegated Authority form and return it to Australian
Unity. Australian Unity will then be able to discuss your health insurance with
that nominated person. This helps us to ensure that your privacy is protected.
Find out more on setting up Delegated Authority here.

Unless you tell us otherwise, a partner or spouse included on your policy, will
have automatic delegated authority on your policy which allows them to do
anything you could do as the policyholder except nominate or cancel other
delegated authorities.

Is an interpreter service available?

Yes. We have a free interpreter service. If you have difficulty reading or
understanding our documents and you wish to discuss it further with us, then our
free interpreter service is available to help on the phone numbers below.

Calling from outside Australia +61 3 8682 7550

How can I pay for my health insurance?

Your health insurance needs to be paid in advance at all times and can be paid
up to a maximum of 12 months in advance. There are two ways you can pay your
premiums: 

 * Direct debit
   You can set up a direct debit for your premiums to be automatically paid from
   your credit card or Australian bank account on a date that matches your
   selected payment frequency (e.g. monthly, quarterly, yearly).
 * Account notice
   After you make your first payment, you can choose to make future payments by
   account notice. When you pay by account notice, you'll receive a bill for
   your health insurance premiums based on your selected payment frequency (e.g
   monthly, quarterly, yearly). You then need to pay the bill by the due date
   shown. Instructions describing the different ways you can make payments are
   included on the account notice.

Is an interpreter service available?
