Hey guys,
Sorry if this post is in the wrong section but I will keep it short and sweet
Just looking for opinions/Advice
I am a British National on a 457 work visa. I have numerous things I have been carrying with me for a while with regards to health issues.
One particular issue is with an ongoing stomach issue and so I went to the Docs as I have been carrying this with me for over a year now..
They sent me for Blood, Urine and Stool tests and thank god I asked the price before I went ahead and did them! $760 Just for the tests!
My question is, is this a normal price for someone who is supposedly a temporary resident?...and if so, What options do I have with regards to getting Health Insurance that will cover this?...Is there no recipocal agreement? (The 'Visitor' Medicare card I have seems useless!)
Any advice what so ever would be a great help!
Cheers!
Ruddy
