- HOW the AUSTRALIAN MEDICARE system WORKS | Optometrist Explains
Medicare in Australia is not like any other public health care system. Australian residents with a medicare card have access to subsidised eye tests from both optometrist and ophthalmologist visits.

Please make a video about private health insurance for us new Australians. Thanks😘
😹😹 can’t forget my fellow Australians!!
Antonio, Im a student of public health in India and I am currently trying to analyse healthcare financing in Australia. Let me take a moment to appreciate the efforts youve put to make this insightful video. Cheers!
Thanks Raunak! I appreciate it you legend 💪
Very informative video! Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Great video ! Thank you for your positive energy, it's very learnful !
Thanks for the video. I’m a 2nd year optom student in qld, and just started working as an optical dispenser. All these medicare and health fund stuffs confuse me so much, especially when I didn’t grow up here in Australia. Could you do a private health fund video if you have the time?
Btw I found your channel because I’m transitioning to contacts right now, so all your how-to tips, dailies/monthlies contacts recommendation videos are super helpful to me. I’ve been binge watching your videos since yesterday😂 did you get free or discounted contacts as a uni student, or now as an optometrist?
I remember getting a few trials pairs as a student but nothing much besides that 😂 now that I am working I can finally afford to buy my own
Thank you for the informative video. Please make a video on private as well 🙏
Hey Antonio! Yes please make a video on private health insurance and how they work in Australia :)) just started as a retail assistant in optical store and it’s quite fascinating for me as a non-optometry student. Thank youu
Oh cool! Which state are you in?

@@3unhy3 that’s dopeeeee alright I’m gonna see if I can make a video on that topic 😁
@@AntonioTheOptom no worriess!! thank you for such informative vids :))
The real value of Medicare rebates has declined greatly since introduction in 1975. Rebates are only available once every 3 years if under 65, or once a year if over 65, for routine preventative exams. Other items are available for patients with symptoms. Many practices now charge a “gap” because they just cannot survive only on the greatly reduced real Medicare rebates.
wow thanks much help thumbs up
No worries Jisu! 👍
Mate, if the wye tests are for diabetes it does have out of pocket costs as part is bulk billed but not all. Costs me for my test
Just adding that Deakin in Melbourne also offers optometry
Yeah haha I only realised I left out Deakin once I uploaded the video oops

Does interim Medicare ( blue card) covers the same as Green card?
Hi I'm really interested in studying optometry in Australia. May I ask where are you currently working at? I've been wondering about the places where optometrist in Australia can work. Do optometrist in Australia or NZ work just in optical shops? Is there hospital or private clinics for optometrist?
I am currently in Western Australia and there are both hospitals and optical stores where optometrists can work!
@@AntonioTheOptom I'm post graduate Optometrist from Pakistan. I want to go there.
Is any opportunity for me
@@AntonioTheOptom hai.i am chamini.can i apply optometry degree
Hello, if I have applied for Medicare, how long will I be eligible for Medicare?
hi, I am currently reading my Bachelor of vision science at Segi University in Malaysia, after finish my degree I hope to practice in Australia as an optometrist, and I know, I want to go through the OCANZ board exam as well. but I want to know from you, should I want to complete 5 work experiences before I apply to OCANZ?
To be honest I reckon if you are going to work in AUS, just get your OCANZ asap
Great vid!
Thank you! 😁😁😁
@@AntonioTheOptom hai can i try Auckland Optometry degree
I personally don't want to listen to an optometrist who needs a glasses. Bro how you gonna treat me when your own sight isn't 20/20?????
*I am joking. Great video.
Hi sir , i have done B.optometry from India . I’m planning to study master’s in australia . I want to know that after completing master’s , i have to give any license exam to practice as an optometrist in australia/ new zealand ??
Ultimately you have to pass the OCANZ exam which may or may not be provided by the university. Would be best to check with the University you are attending
hi sir can i ask you my tito is autralian but he is in hospital now in philippines,and they have medicare..he can apply here?
Might want to contact the Department of Human services for hospital related enquiries!
