Hi Allianz team,
Why is the price for a Dual family cover so expensive compared with 2 single OSHC? My partner and I are paying an extra $3000 for 19 months comparing with 2 singles...

Now i am so confused. Any help?

Hi, can you please email me your full name, policy number and details (eg. baby's date of birth) to [email protected] and I'll have this investigated. Regards, Anthony.
This is unfair to the poor mother and baby.
Anthony, kindly use your office to settle the situation and make our country a good one. I hate where foreign nationals have bad impression about our society.
this i not a big issue. its just misunderstanding regarding the dates. simply you can contact allianz global assistance overseas student health cover officials, believe that they are so helping and nice they will surely sort out this.

Because of terrible experience that I have with Allianz Oshc, I'm thinking to transfer my health insurance to Medibank.
How I can change it to another health insurance?

Hi Hussain, thanks for the question. Can you please send through to me your full name, contact details and policy number to [email protected] and I'll escalate this to have one of the team discuss this with you. Regards, Anthony.
It is possible, and highly encouraged, to change your Overseas Health Cover from Allianz to a normal insurance provider such as Medibank, AHM, Bupa and NIB. These are all the companies you can change to that I know of. I will not make any recommendations here, however, it will always be an improvement to your existing Allianz cover.
Please, Hussain, keep us updated and let us know how it goes. I sympathise with you and fully understand why you want to change insurance. It does not take long to realise how slow and inefficient this insurance is.
