As an international student, you are required to have OSHC to ensure that you are covered in the case of medical emergencies or illness.
What does OSHC provide?
– OSHC covers international students for certain medical costs if you need to visit a doctor or go to hospital
– Check the policy carefully, including the details of what is covered
– Extra cover is available for an additional fee
– Serious medical problems should be treated before you come to Australia, as standard OSHC generally does not cover pre-existing medical conditions
How do I arrange OSHC?
› You can arrange OSHC yourself, or
› Discover English can arrange standard OSHC cover for you with our preferred medical fund insurer, nib.
