Hi All,
I would be immigrating to Oz in the next few months.
I am married and have 2 kids – 13 years & 6 years girls
I would like to know incase any of us needs to undergo a surgery in Oz due to any problem then would that be done free of cost or I would have to pay?

Please also tell me what kind of Health Insurance would be the most suited? Is it very expensive?
Thanks.

Getting a little fed up with the " is it free aproach, vaccinations, operations" try the Australian government they might be giving away some free flights so you can get the rest of your freebies, perhaps they will sub all the rest of us while they are at it.


A pissed off Paul

That was very encouraging " a pissed off Paul"

When we Indians come to your country we bring so much money which you and your previous generations haven't seen!!!!!
And we do not behave in such a rude manner.
I was just seeking info so that I could get the things done before coming to your country.
Sorry to have pissed you Paul. I had no such intentions to exploit the finances of Australia.

Gunitm,
Not too sure what you mean by the bringing money bit, we are in the UK, and why would you mention "we Indians" I thought you were a gregarious nation.
Ah well such is life
