If you have Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) with another provider, you do not have to purchase a Medibank policy. However, it is a student visa requirement that you must have current OSHC for the full duration of your student visa.

The University of Western Australia’s preferred health provider for all international students is Medibank. If you need assistance, you can contact Medibank on 134 148 (from within Australia) or + 61 3 6862 1095 (from overseas). You can also visit their website or email them directly.
