We have ambo cover, always have done. I've never had to call one ever, but I've been in an ambo several times.
In WA you are covered for hospital to hospital transfers (if both are public hospitals). Aged pensiors are covered for free.
There are two different types of cover here though, Country and Metro.
Taken from HERE
Metropolitan Ambulance Cover
In the metropolitan area St John Ambulance has not operated the Ambulance Cover since 1997.
HBF owns and operates the HBF St John Ambulance Cover.
Please check with your health insurer to see what level of ambulance cover you hold.Country Ambulance Cover
In country WA, St John Country Ambulance Cover is administered by the local St John Sub Centres.
If you have comprehensive Country Ambulance Cover, the cost of an ambulance trip is covered for as many emergency or necessary non-emergency transports you or your family members require.
St John Country Ambulance Cover will protect you for St John Ambulance transport 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in Western Australia. If you are travelling in the eastern states, your cover will also extend to intrastate road transport with other principal providers of emergency road transport.
