LIVING IN THE UNITED STATES

HEALTH CARE IN USA

Australia has one of the best health care systems in the world. It is widely accessible to all who reside in the country.

All permanent Australian residents pay a Medicare levy (an additional tax) to fund the public health system. This entitles them to free or subsidised services by medical practitioners and public hospital care.

There is also an extensive private health system, for those wishing to pay an additional fee to receive extra benefits for optical, physiotherapy and dental treatment when they use private health care services.
