Full transcript
Thanks for holding, Pak Wibowo. I've pulled up your file regarding the knee reconstruction your orthopaedic surgeon recommended last month at Epworth Geelong Hospital.
Terima kasih, Bu. Dokter bilang lutut saya sudah cukup parah dan sebaiknya segera dioperasi. Apakah asuransi bisa membayar sekarang juga?
I understand the pain is severe, but under Australian private health insurance rules, joint replacement surgery carries a fixed twelve-month waiting period.
Tapi dokter saya sudah menulis surat bahwa ini kasus mendesak. Apakah itu tidak bisa membuat prosesnya lebih cepat?
Unfortunately, no doctor's certificate or urgency letter can waive that legislated waiting period; it applies equally to every policyholder nationwide, without exception.
Saya kurang yakin sudah berapa lama ikut asuransi ini. Bisa tolong dicek kapan polis saya mulai berlaku?
Let me check your records now... your policy actually started eight months ago, so you still have four more months remaining before cover applies.
Kalau begitu, apa ada pilihan lain selain menunggu empat bulan lagi? Mungkin lewat rumah sakit umum?
In the meantime, you could use Medicare and join the public hospital waiting list at Barwon Health in Geelong, if that suits you better.
Kalau lewat daftar tunggu rumah sakit umum, berapa lama biasanya saya harus menunggu untuk operasi ini?
Public hospital wait times vary, often between six and twelve months, but there's no extra cost since you're a Medicare-eligible Australian resident.
Baiklah, saya akan pikirkan dua-duanya. Sementara ini saya akan coba kelola rasa sakitnya dengan obat dari dokter.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- private health insuranceTerjemahkan sebagai 'asuransi kesehatan swasta', ini istilah yang sudah lazim dan dipahami dalam bahasa Indonesia.
- waiting periodGunakan 'periode tunggu' dan jelaskan singkat bahwa selama periode ini manfaat belum bisa diklaim.
- medicareGunakan tetap kata 'Medicare' tanpa diterjemahkan, karena ini nama resmi sistem, bisa ditambah penjelasan singkat 'sistem asuransi kesehatan nasional Australia' bila perlu konteks.
- public hospitalGunakan 'rumah sakit umum' atau 'rumah sakit publik (pemerintah)'.
- waiting listTerjemahkan sebagai 'daftar tunggu', istilah yang lazim dipakai.
Practise it
