Health Information

International students should bring their Student Card and either their OSHC Worldcare card or Medibank OSHC Private card when they attend for their doctor’s appointment. They will be asked to show these cards on arrival. Visits to the doctor are covered by OSHC Wordcare or Medibank Private insurance.

Students without a current OSHC Worldcare or Medibank Private card may need to pay for any visits to the doctors. Visits to the counsellors and nurses are free.

For any queries relating to OSHC Worldcare membership, please ring OSHC Worldcare on 13 14 84 or contact your OSHC Worldcare representative. The OSHC representative can be visited at the Student Centre (Building 1) on Mondays: 9am – 5pm and Wednesdays: 9am – 5pm; or can be contacted via email: actcsr@worldcare.com.au

If you have any other queries please come and see the Health and Counselling Centre staff.
