(a) the student’s travel:
- to and from New Zealand; and
- within New Zealand; and
- if the travel is part of the course, outside New Zealand; and
(b) medical care in New Zealand, including diagnosis, prescription, surgery, and hospitalisation; and
(c) repatriation or expatriation of the student as a result of serious illness or injury, including cover of travel costs incurred by family members assisting repatriation or expatriation; and
(d) death of the student, including cover of:
- travel costs of family members to and from New Zealand; and
- costs of repatriation or expatriation of the body; and
- funeral expenses.
