Why Do You Need OSHC for a 500 Visa?

Planning to study in Australia? If you’re applying for a Subclass 500 Student Visa, it’s mandatory to hold Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) to meet visa condition 8501. This health insurance protects you from unexpected medical costs and is a must-have to lodge your visa.

Your 500 Visa Health Insurance

If you’re coming to Australia on a Student (Subclass 500) Visa, having the right health insurance isn’t just a box to tick—it’s a visa requirement. Our 500 Visa Health Insurance plans, known as OSHC, are specifically designed for international students like you. We make sure you meet Visa Condition 8501, covering you for medical expenses and hospital care throughout your studies. Get comprehensive, 100% visa-compliant protection in minutes, so you can focus on your education, not your medical bills.

Key Benefits and Services
Mandatory Visa Compliance

OSHC is a non-negotiable visa condition (8501), ensuring you meet the Department of Home Affairs' requirements for your student visa.

Extensive Medical Coverage

OSHC policies typically cover a significant portion of your medical costs, including doctor visits (GP consultations), hospital accommodation, some prosthetic devices, and surgeon fees for necessary treatments.

Emergency Care Included

Rest assured, emergency ambulance services, which are generally not free in Australia, are also covered by your OSHC policy.

Pharmaceutical Benefits

OSHC contributes towards the cost of most prescription medicines, helping to manage your ongoing health needs.

Family Coverage

If you're bringing family members with you on your student visa, OSHC policies can extend coverage to them, including those with pre-existing conditions (subject to waiting periods).

Direct Billing Convenienceee

Many OSHC providers offer direct billing arrangements with doctors and GPs, meaning the bill can be sent directly to your insurer, often eliminating the need for upfront payment and subsequent claims.eeee

Compare and Save

Services are available to help you compare offerings from various Australian government-approved OSHC providers, ensuring you find a policy that best suits your needs and budget.

Quick and Easy Setup

The application process is typically streamlined, allowing you to obtain your OSHC certificate quickly, sometimes within minutes of purchase.
