GMHBA hospital covers are designed for people who have full Medicare eligibility. These covers will not meet the cost of public hospital treatment, medical treatment or diagnostic services for people who do not have full Medicare eligibility.

Temporary residents of Australia who do not have full Medicare eligibility should contact GMHBA on 1300 446 422 or visit a branch to discuss appropriate health insurance arrangements.

If you're an overseas visitor looking for hospital cover, you should consider Frank Overseas Visitor Health cover. Frank OVHC is a brand provided by GMHBA Limited.

Overseas travel

GMHBA does not provide benefits for services or treatment received overseas. GMHBA advises that you take out travel insurance for the set period of your travel and that it’s suitable to the destinations you’re visiting.
