Ambulance Services
It is important to check whether your Overseas Visitors Cover includes ambulance services.
Ambulance services provided in Australia include:
- emergency transportation
- non-emergency transportation and/or
- on-the-spot treatment
Each health fund and policy is different and some will not cover all or any of the services.
An Ambulance and Medical Repatriation service comparison is available on your results page when you get a quote through us online.
Ambulance services are not included under the Reciprocal Health Care Agreement.
