Default Getting insurance

I seem to be having trouble getting a reasonable quote for travel
insurance that is longer than 30 days.

I was going to go to Oz for a couple of months, but can't find any
insurance.

TIA


I see that you have discovered one of the little quirks in the
"vacation" industry. 30 day maximum coverage for most travel plans is
fairly standard as they are designed for travel on vacation.

What you seem to be looking for is longer term health coverage while
in Australia and I think that the advice given to seek a more
traditional insurance provider has merit.
