Frequently Asked Questions
How is the price of your quote calculated?
The price of your quote is primarily based upon the likelihood of your medical conditions requiring treatment while abroad; the health care costs of your chosen destination; its distance from Australia; and your age. But importantly, the level of cover being offered to you as well. Our quote system acts as a comparison tool, so you can select a level of cover which suits you best.
Are there any exclusions for over 50s?
There are no benefits which stop at 50, though your options of cover can change in later years.
For example, Winter Sports is available as an Optional Extra up to the age of 65.
However, during your quote, you will only be displayed policies which offer fully comprehensive cover. What’s more, we also provide Golf cover as an optional extra.
