Hi,

I am being told that I would need insurance in Australia. There are two types here - outbound and inbound. I am confused as in which one should I go for as the difference in the price is quite high.
Can someone help me here. Is it too expensive to go to a general practitioner for routine things like viral, fever, cold, etc. In that case I need an out bound insurance too. I usually visit the doctor once or twice a month and my husband just one a twice a year.
Please advise what should be a better option.

hi!
I am jyothy from hyd , INDIA. we have been living in singapore for the past 3 yrs .we want to know some info regarding the life in Australia. How abt the house rentals, public transport, schools over there as my kid is 3 1/2 yrs old, groceries , other stuff like utilities bills. And which place u think is better to live. I would be very glad if u provide me the rough estimation. thank u once again.

I just need to organise accommodation that is I am most worried about. by face I even dont' know anyone, but thinking positive and believe everything will be fine.

Comming frm NZ, you should not have any probs Usha. Oz is a country where you can easily settle in.

I agree, positive thinking will help a lot...

Medicare will no doubt take care of all general illnesses Chandni, I would suggest you take up private health cover. Waiting lists on general category for surgery is longer than Hanumanji's tail.

Just go to Private Health Insurance Australia - iSelect to compare medical insurances.

Thanks Corallux.

We filed our papers with the agent last week crossing our fingers now :)

Please keep us in your prayers during this process .

Also would require help from all of you with my queries :)
