The following are sample computations for Travel Insurance coming from the Philippines and some Private Health Insurance for Visitor visa (subclass 600).
AIG Travel Guard
They offer 2 plans:
Standard Protection - 1M Medical cover
Enhanced Protection - 2.5M Medical Cover
Standard Protection
- amount in Philippines peso
- 2,750 for the 1st 30 days and 392 for additional week)
- Total payments for:
1 month of stay = 2,750
2 months of stay = 2,750 + (392 + 392 + 392 + 392) = 4,318
6 months of stay = 2,750 + (1,568 x 5) = 10,590
Enhanced Protection
- 2,750 for the 1st 30 days and 392 for additional week)
- Total payments for:
1 month of stay = 2,750
2 months of stay = 2,750 + (392 + 392 + 392 + 392) = 4,318
6 months of stay = 2,750 + (1,568 x 5) = 10,590
Enhanced Protection
- amount in Philippines peso
- 3,026 for the 1st 30 days and 430 for additional week)
- Total payments for:
1 month of stay = 3,026
2 months of stay = 3,026 + (430 + 430 + 430 + 430) = 4,746
6 months of stay = 3,026 + (1,720 x 5) = 11,626
Do contact AIG Philippines for updated premium prices.
An alternative for AIG is BLUE CROSS. But I prefer AIG because of the following reasons:
AIG is a multinational company and they have a local branch as well in Australia. AIG offers their Medical Expense Benefit which they claim to be cashless for In-Patient Treatment. The Insured may contact their 24-hour emergency hotline to assist them during emergency cases as our Travel Guard Representatives will be the one to coordinate with their Claims Department in the Philippines.
Travel Guard 24-hour Emergency Hotline. In case of emergency, all you have to do is call collect any time from anywhere in the world.
(632) 878-1280 (Philippines) or
(603) 2772-5672 (Malaysia)
IMAN Budget
IMAN Budget, as per my personal research, so far offers the lowest plan that meets that 8501 condition set by the Department of Immigration for tourist visas including 457 and 458. As of writing, they offer $77.85/mo for an individual. You can also pay in weekly, fortnightly (2 weeks), quarterly, half-yearly and yearly.
You can also review the offers from Medibank, Bupa and HCF. These are the Big 3 Private Health Insurance in Australia.
