Cissi Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Not if you qualify for Reciprocal Health Care Agreement on Medicare i.e. residents of NZ, UK, Ireland, Sweden, Finland, or Norway. Residents of some other European countries qualify for limited time so most likely will need PHI. http://www.humanservices.gov.au/customer/enablers/medicare/reciprocal-health-care-agreements/health-care-for-visitors-to-australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERYSTORMY Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 You will need some temporary cover to satisfy the visa condition. Most people just take travel insurance. However, you should look at the pros and cons of private health cover as for many it is a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
