Here are two popular visas that Medibank’s Overseas Workers Health Covers are 100% compliant for:
Visa subclass 482
The Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482) referred to as the TSS visa, enables employers to address labour shortages by bringing in genuinely skilled workers where they cannot source an appropriately skilled Australian. TSS visa holders can work in Australia in their nominated occupation for their approved sponsor for 1 to 4 years depending on which of the three streams they apply under.
Visa subclass 485
The Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) is for international students who have recently graduated from an Australian educational institution. It allows you to work in Australia temporarily after finishing your studies.
They are also 100% compliant for visas 407, 408, 457 and 489.
This information is based on the Department of Home Affairs website and is accurate as of April 2019
Australia's healthcare system explained
The private healthcare system (which Medibank is part of) complements the public healthcare system, or if you’re not eligible for Medicare, it replaces it. Medibank provides private health insurance (also known as overseas health cover) to overseas students, visitors and workers to help with the cost of services provided in the private healthcare system. This includes emergency ambulance trips and a range of treatments in a private hospital.
If you need medical attention while you’re in Australia and you don’t have health cover it can be very expensive, whether you’re treated in the public or the private healthcare system.?
Medicare is operated through the Australian government and gives Australian residents, and some international visitors, free or discounted health services through the public healthcare system. If you’re from a country with a Reciprocal Health Care Agreement (RHCA) you might receive some Medicare benefits, also known as Reciprocal Medicare.
