    @JCsantos Talaga libre? Kasi may parang nabasa ako dito sa forum na yung isang parent nagpa-todo vaccine na ng baby niya bago umalis. But I guess depende siguro sa visa class. Good to know kung ganon. Thanks for the info!

    Ayos yan kapag libre. Dalhin daw ung certification from Pedia about history ng vaccine. Actually more than 10k na nagagastos ko sa vaccine. Parang around 20-30k na nga. may mga set ng vaccine na 6-7k ang price, and every month to 2 years minsan 2-3 kinds pa. mahal pa prof fee dun sa pedia nya sa makati med.

    Curious lang ako up to what extent ba coverage ng Medicare?

    Ang assumption ko kasi majority libre, if not totally libre ang medical services sa mga citizens/PR.. kaya mahigpit ang medical screening for immigrants especially for serious illnesses that will require significant medical services, and tax-payers money...

    Curious lang ako up to what extent ba coverage ng Medicare?

    Ang assumption ko kasi majority libre, if not totally libre ang medical services sa mga citizens/PR.. kaya mahigpit ang medical screening for immigrants especially for serious illnesses that will require significant medical services, and tax-payers money...
    Consultation with GP is free, for a Specialist there will be gap payment or you pay then Medicare will refund you some % of it ... by experience like immunisation, blood test , ECG, XRAY, ultrasound are free

    if you get hospitalised they shoulder 75% something

    Google for Everything !!!

    Hi guys,

    Just a quick question. Is there really a need to have a dental exam and acquire a complete dental record before you leave for Australia? I keep seeing it in people's checklists but I haven't encountered it in any of the requirements from DIAC.

    Why is there a need to have this?

    Hope someone can enlighten me.

    Thanks!

    @bookworm Thanks for replying. Requirement ba sya when looking for a job? Akala ko kasi enough na yung medical exam na ni-require sa visa application. Where would you need these? And is there an accredited clinic you need to get these from? If so, where?

    @bookworm hmm...okay. I'm trying to justify the need to get them since I still have a lot to do before leaving, and if you can do without it, then I'd rather not go through the trouble of getting them. Did you bother getting them?
