Ambulance cover is provided by the State government for residents of Tasmania. This may include cover whilst interstate, except for South Australia and Queensland where no cover applies. In other states please check with Ambulance Tasmania - https://www.health.tas.gov.au/ambulance/fees_and_accounts.
Up to $5,000 per person per year for emergency ambulance attendance or transportation in the case of accident or illness. Cover applies anywhere in Australia. Residents of Tasmania are covered by a reciprocal state government ambulance scheme in all states except QLD and SA, so our ambulance cover only applies where the state government scheme does not. You can also purchase additional ambulance cover through a state government ambulance service.
