Who is Worldcare?
Worldcare is an Australian company providing travel insurance to Australian customers for over 10 years. Our insurance policies are underwritten by Allianz, the world’s leading insurance company.
We were the first Australian company to get into the business of medical repatriations for New Zealanders stuck overseas, and were founded by Dr Tom Biggs, a Queensland physician who found himself in the position of managing a hands-on repatriation for a family member, and was shocked by the challenges he faced.
Our mission is to manage those challenges for you, should something go wrong when you are travelling. We have a rich range of experience over 20 years, and have a range of products and services to suit your insurance needs.
We offer you total in-house service from arranging your insurance to paying your claim.
