Hi all! I'm heading off the Aus for a year in January 2014, and I'm struggling to make sense of the info on the web regarding the best option to go with. Being from the UK, I understand I can get a medicare card when I get over there.
I thought travel insurance would be very easy but my plan was the learn to ride a motorbike in Aus, which means none of the policies will cover me without a full uk bike license from the start, which I can't get in the timeframe. Whereas health insurance would fix that issue. However, with health insurance being much more expensive, is it worth getting if i can use medicare? And if a policy says they wont cover things that aren't covered by medicare, is there any point in getting it?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
