IMPORTANT UPDATE: CBHS International will cease sales of their overseas student (OSHC) and overseas visitor (OVHC) health insurance products from 31 October 2025.

This is a strategic decision by the CBHS Group to focus on the Australian domestic health insurance market. In response to this, we will be removing CBHS from ovhcinsurance.com.au as of Friday, 03 October 2025. 

CBHS International will continue to fully service policies purchased prior to 31 October 2025 including managing claims and providing customer support for the life of those policies. As part of their ongoing commitment, they will communicate with OVHC policyholders 90-days prior to their policy expiry date. Please note that no action is required for existing policyholders who will remain covered under the terms of their current policy.

For new policies and extensions, we strongly recommend that you purchase one of the other government approved insurance providers to avoid complications. 

For any concerns, you can contact CBHS International directly.
