Which of the following statements about the ‘Property Insurance’, ‘Motor Vehicle Insurance’, ‘Health Insurance’ and ‘Travel Insurance’ sections of the lecture material are TRUE: In Australia, insuring any damage to another person’s vehicle is covered under the ‘Green Slip’ and is required whenever someone renews their registration each year. The cost of emergency transport by ambulance is covered under the Medicare system in Australia.

To tackle the question, I’ll evaluate each statement in turn and explain why it is true or false based on typical Australian insurance and healthcare arrangements.
Option 1: 'In Australia, insuring any damage to another person’s vehicle is covered under the Green Slip and is required whenever someone renews their registration each year.' The Green Slip, also known as Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance, is designed to cover injuries to other people when you’re at fault in a vehicle accident, not damage to property. It is a compulsory requirement in many Australian jurisdictions for vehicle registration, but the wording here claims it covers ‘any damage to another person’s vehicle,’ which is not accurate because CTP covers personal injuries, not property damage to third parties. Property damage to another vehicle is typically covered by compulsory third-party property damage or voluntary third-party property coverage, or by your own comprehensive or third-party property insurance, depending on the state. Therefore, this statement is not an accurate description of what Green Slip covers and its role in registration renewal, making it false in its broad claim.
Option 2: 'The cost of emergency transport by ambulance is covered under the Medicare system in Australia.' Medicare largely covers medical services such as doctor consultations, hospital treatments, and some subsidized healthcare costs. Ambulance services are not universally covered by Medicare; funding and coverage for ambulance transport vary by state and can be partially subsidized or paid out-of-pocket, often requiring separate ambulance cover or patient fees. As a general rule, ambulance transport is not guaranteed to be fully covered by Medicare, so this statement is not accurate in representing Medicare coverage. Hence, this statement is false.
After reviewing both statements, we see that each contains inaccuracies about what Green Slip covers and about Medicare’s coverage of ambulance transport. A careful reading shows that neither statement perfectly reflects the standard Australian arrangements for these two topics.
