Domestic student consultations are free (bulk-billed) through Medicare

Extra fees will apply for procedures, vaccinations and equipment hire, such as crutches.

If you are an international student, you need to have International Student Health Cover (OHSC) to access free health services in Australia. For more information, visit our OSHC page here.
