I believe it is the same as the said government workers healthcare, which is private. I couldn't swear to it tho

I'm married to a public servant and receive free healthcare under the close family scheme.

 

I can receive govt hospital treatment with referrals to private hospitals for MRI's etc if required.

 

For more serious problems like cancer I'll receive standard treatment but it's worth me using private cover for better treatment.

 

However it depends on what scheme the public servant is in. I'm told as part of cost cutting measures newer staff dont receive the same family privileges.

I'm already insured but I had similar problem applying for O/A visa overseas.

The company can't provide the required signed insurance certificate clearly indicating coverage limit and period, one year.
