I would like to just get basic ambulance nsw cover without having to join a health fund is this possible
Hi Sher,
Thank you for leaving a question.
Yes, you may be able to just get ambulance cover for NSW. You have to purchase ambulance cover insurance from a private health fund or a subscription through the state ambulance service. You may check the page we are on for a comparison of ambulance cover. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Reggie
Hi,just making an enquiry for my in laws. They are aged pensioners in south Australia. They do a lot of caravanning in Aust. Would they b covered Aust wide just on their pension and health care cards. Cheers
Hi Leigh,
Thank you for contacting Finder.
While a pension is more on providing financial aid and not health insurance cover, health care cards usually cover free or subsidised treatment by doctors and less fee for services and procedures.
We suggest reviewing the option of having an insurance for their caravan .
If you want to explore other options as well such as getting a domestic travel insurance, simply enter your travel details on our travel insurance search form. This will allow you to compare quote from different insurers.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Loraine

Thank you for your inquiry.
You may check out the policies that include it in a hospital plan or extras plan by entering your preferences and submitting the form above.
Should you want to check out Ambulance Only policy, you may need to reach out to the insurers directly to see what they can offer you.
I hope this helps.

I am on an aged pension which entitles me to free ambulance in nsw. How do I go if travelling interstate and incur costs in relation to ambulance services. Would I be covered as a pensioner of nsw or would I need to take out private cover.
Hi Daryl,
Thank you for your question.
According to Ambulance Services of New South Wales, cover for concession card holders is provided for emergency ambulance services for all other States/Territories.
You should contact the Health Ambulance Service of NSW directly for clarification and if you have any further questions.
All the best,
