Health System

Permanent residents are eligible to receive immediate entitlement to Medicare, Australian government’s public healthcare scheme. Medicare is an Australia-wide health insurance scheme, funded through an income tax contribution by most Australian tax payers.

Through Medicare permanent residents can receive:

• free treatment as a public patient in a public hospital;
• free or subsidised treatment by doctors in a general practice; and
• subsidies on some medicines and treatment by participating specialists.

In addition to Medicare, many Australians also take out Private health insurance. There are numerous healthcare funds, with each offering different schemes and levels of cover. Taking out private health cover allows the holder such benefits as choice of doctor, choice of hospital and shorter waiting periods for non-urgent procedures. Some private health funds also cover services such as dental, optical, physiotherapy and podiatry services.

Private health funds have 'qualifying periods' requiring new customers to wait a specified period before being eligible to claim non-emergency treatments and services.
