Make sure you have 100 point id check and sufficient proof of employment/income before you approach the financial institution, otherwise you could apply for a debit card to use.

It is possible you signed to be treated as a private patient in a public hospital.
Maybe go back to the hospital and ask why they have billed you, that will give you a starting point to appeal.

Have you already consulted a Registered Migration Agent for help?

It's payable for so many weeks at the full rate, excluding some allowances, that you would be entitled to in Aus, but then drops to a figure calculated by the no. of years you have been here up to age 65 over 35 years, in my case 33/35 years × full rate. Can't remember how long before it reduced, but they told me in a letter when i notified them i was going. If you qualified for a small uk pension you can apply for a higher rate while you are in UK or Europe.

I hear of more tenants offering over the going rate, or paying up to 6 months in advance than negotiating down. There is always a shortage of good quality rentals and there seem to be many people keen to rent, but it does depend where you want to be. If you are further away from the city it may work.

Yes but the fees you have linked to are payable by everyone whether you are a born and bred Aussie or not.
Sorry, so the op is asking whether International fees are payable, I misunderstood that.

School fees are payable in all states, regardless of age. http://www.education.vic.gov.au/school/parents/financial/Pages/parentpaymentfaqs.aspx
With some visas full international fees are payable, not sure which ones they are.

My relatives have a codicil in their will which states explicitly what they wish to happen to their children if that happens. It is important where more than one country is involved.

I am not sure you have a complete understanding of how medicare works.
Briefly
Private health insurance is a supplement which gives you a choice of being treated at a time, place and by whom you choose, if you need hospitalisation or surgery.
Medicare covers visits ti doctors, some specialists, some medications and procedures at public hospitals. You cannot choose where or when you are seen or admitted and sometimes may wait years.
For that reason you cannot compare them financially. It is not comparing like with like.
-
Medicare does not cover dental, nor does it cover optical except for eye examination.
If any Uk passport holder has need of emergency care they will be covered by medicare in a public hospital under a reciprocal agreement. This does not apply to EU passport holder. You will need medical insurance to cover all your medical needs including prescriptions.
