BRISBANE, Australia, June 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Allianz Care, part of global leader
in insurance and assistance services [**Allianz Partners**](https://www.allianz-partners.com/en_global.html)**,**
has unveiled a [refreshed Overseas Visitor Health Cover (OVHC) portfolio with new product ‘Everyday Care Workers](https://www.allianzcare.com.au/en/visas/visitors-visa-ovhc/compare.html)‘,
designed to better cater to a range of budgets in Australia’s international workforce.
This product offers practical and accessible health coverage, including uncapped
general practitioner (GP) visits and admitted hospital benefits,  affordably priced
from AUD 93 per month for Single policyholders.

The launch follows findings from Allianz Partners’ [customer research](https://www.allianz-partners.com/content/dam/onemarketing/awp/azpartnerscom/australia/research-and-reports/2025-State-of-Student-Healthcare-Report.pdf),
which identified a growing group of recent graduates and skilled workers seeking
affordable GP access without the higher costs of specialist coverage. The [2025 State of Student Healthcare Report](https://www.allianz-partners.com/content/dam/onemarketing/awp/azpartnerscom/australia/research-and-reports/2025-State-of-Student-Healthcare-Report.pdf)
identified 85% of respondents underestimated the cost of living. With rising living
expenses and more than 59% of international students planning to stay in Australia
after graduation, the Everyday Care Workers product responds directly to this shift
by offering a streamlined, cost-effective health cover option.

"Allianz Care has a long history of supporting international communities in Australia,"
said Miranda Fennell, Executive Head of Health, Allianz Partners Australia. "These
updates demonstrate our ongoing commitment to providing health insurance that’s 
clear, flexible, and truly focused on care, whether supporting international students
transitioning from their studies into the workforce or welcoming international workers
and visitors to Australia."

This product launch forms part of a broader refresh of Allianz Care’s OVHC range,
featuring simplified product names and a redesigned online purchasing experience.
The updates make it easier for international visitors and workers to compare plans,
understand inclusions, and choose cover aligned with their visa, lifestyle, and 
budget.

Demand for such coverage continues to grow. In 2025 133,891 temporary graduate visas
were issued, up over 7% from grants in 2024 (124,687). This sustained demand for
skilled migration underscores the importance of affordable health insurance as international
students transition into the Australian workforce.

International students and workers also make a notable contribution to Australia’s
economy. According to the [Australian Government Department of Education,](https://www.education.gov.au/international-education-data-and-research/education-export-income-financial-year?utm_source=)
international education was worth almost $55.0 billion to the Australian economy
in 2025. The [Business Council of Australia](https://www.bca.com.au/reports-submissions/reports/migration-makes-australia-stronger/)
estimates that for every 1,000 migrants, there is approximately AUD 124 million 
in economic value per year.

Through the new Everyday Care Workers product, and refreshed OVHC portfolio, _Allianz
Care_ continues to deliver on its ambitions to make health insurance accessible,
practical, and supportive for migrants.
