Which cover level fits your move?

By Covered Abroad Research Desk · Last verified July 2026

A quick minute of questions about your move, your household, the care you want covered, and your budget. We match you to one of the five cover levels, show the real starting price, say honestly why, and hand you a quote form with your answers already filled in.

Questions about finding your level

How is the recommendation chosen?

From your answers only: destination, household, age, the care you want covered, your priority, and your budget range. It maps to the public benefit tables and the official 2026 rate card. If your needs point above your budget we say so honestly and show the in-budget alternative. No email is required.

Is Essential Health enough for a visa application?

Generally no. Essential Health covers unforeseen accident and emergency care in state hospitals only, with no outpatient, dental or wellbeing cover. It is a budget plan rather than full private health cover, and it is not a substitute for full private health insurance on a long-stay visa application.

What are the five levels?

Essential Health (US$100,000 a year, state hospitals, accident and emergency only), then Major Medical, Standard and Comprehensive (each US$1,000,000 overall plan limit a year), then Fully Comprehensive (US$2,000,000). The benefit depth rises with the level, not just the limit.

Are the prices shown real?

Yes. Starting prices come cell-exact from the 2026 rate card rather than being estimated, and children 0 to 17 are priced at a flat rate. Premiums rise with age; the full age-by-age table is on the pricing page.

Do I need to give an email to see my result?

No. The tool shows your recommended level and its real starting price without an email address, then hands you a quote form with your answers already filled in if you want to go further.

What is excluded regardless of level?

Pre-existing conditions are excluded, including ones you did not know about, and cover is worldwide but excludes treatment in the United States. Covered Abroad is an introducer rather than the insurer, so we cannot extend cover beyond the policy wording.
