This is a budget option that lets you meet your visa requirements and avoid paying extra for benefits you don't want. Hospital and ambulance cover are included and nothing else.

Please advise on cover for a 410 Visa Holder living in Australia
Hi Stephen,
Thanks for getting in touch with Finder.
As a 410 visa holder living in Australia, you may want to explore our non-Australian residents life insurance to find the right health insurance for you.
On that page, you will see an online form which you can fill out to get a quote.
As a non-resident senior, you can still find a policy that fits your needs. Of course, it will ultimately depend on the insurer and your circumstances. Seniors can find it harder to get life insurance regardless of residency, and it may be particularly difficult for non-resident seniors. It will generally be easier to find funeral insurance than a full life insurance policy.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out again.
Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Joshua
