Hello @RyanCFC,
My wife is due on January 2017 and we confirmed that if you have medicare, you'll be taken care of for free in public hospitals. So it would include the following (mga encountered and inquiries namin so far):
1) For Delivery Process and accommodation
2) Checkup/consultations
3) Pathology Tests (Blood/urine/gtt...)
Ang binayaran lang namin ay half ng ultrasound, the other (almost) half is paid for by medicare/government. Ultrasound here 2d may cost about 180AUD.
Reminder lang, get your medicare asap when you arrived =). Godbless!
