Yes, dependents included on the 485 visa can often be covered under a family or couple health insurance plan (an OVHC policy) that meets your visa condition 8501.
If your stay changes, you’ll need to check that your existing OVHC policy still meets the new duration and visa health cover requirement. You may need to extend the policy or switch to a plan that covers the latest dates.
Possibly, when transitioning from yourstudent cover (OSHC) to an OVHC for a 485 visa, insurers will review yourmedical history. Some pre-existing conditions may be subject to waiting periods or exclusions.
Even though the core cover (hospital, emergency, doctor, etc) must meet the visa requirement, any extras you add (dental, optical, allied health) often come with waiting periods (e.g., 3 or 12 months) before you can claim. For visa compliance, the key is that the basic OVHC meets condition 8501; the waiting period for extras doesn’t invalidate compliance, but it affects when those extras can be used.
