About
An Overseas Visitor Health Cover marketplace
EcoLifeInsure brings the Overseas Visitor Health Cover options available to you into one place, so the comparison is based on your visa, your cover type and your start date rather than on marketing.
What we do
You enter your visa subclass, cover start date and who needs cover. We match that against the plans insurers have made available on the platform and show the pricing that is currently valid for your details. You can compare up to three plans side by side, open the insurer's policy documents, and apply for the plan you choose.
Where the information comes from
- Plans, benefits, excess options, waiting periods and policy documents are entered from insurer-published material.
- Pricing is stored with an effective date range, so the price shown is the price valid for your cover start date.
- Visa eligibility is recorded per plan, so a plan is only offered for visa subclasses the insurer accepts.
- A plan is not shown at all until it has eligibility, valid pricing, benefits and a policy document in place.
- Where an insurer has not published a detail, we point you to the plan documents instead of estimating it.
What we do not do
- We do not rank one plan as best, recommended or preferred.
- We do not give financial, medical, legal or migration advice.
- We do not issue insurance or assess claims — the insurer does both.
- We do not show every insurer or every plan in the Australian market.
How we are paid
We may receive a commission from an insurer when a policy is issued through the platform. Commission does not change the order plans appear in, and it does not change the premium the insurer publishes.
Your visa is your responsibility
Health insurance requirements depend on your visa and your individual conditions. Holding a policy purchased through this platform does not guarantee a visa grant. Always check the conditions that apply to your own visa.
