Emergency Medical Insurance
Canadians enjoy one of the best healthcare systems
in the world. However, there are some situations in
which it is necessary to purchase emergency medical
insurance. You may need this type of insurance if:
- You are new to Canada and are waiting for your
government health plan coverage to begin
- You are a Canadian citizen, but not eligible for
government health plan coverage
- You have a friend or family member who is visiting
Canada
- You are in Canada on a valid work or student visa
For these situations, we offer a Visitors to Canada
Plan. Depending on the type of package you choose, this
type of insurance provides coverage for emergency medical
care, ambulance services, repatriation, bedside companion
travel, emergency return home, emergency allowance and
subsistence benefits, emergency dental treatment and
travel accident protection.
Protect Yourself While Traveling
Your provincial healthcare plan may not cover all
of the expenses if you are ill or injured outside the
province where you live. So any time you travel outside
your home province, it’s a good idea to purchase
emergency travel health insurance before you go.
Travel Health Insurance provides protection
by paying for covered, unexpected emergency medical
expenses incurred while you are traveling outside of
your home province.
It can also provide trip cancellation and interruption
coverage, in case you need to cancel your trip or fly
back early because of a medical or family emergency,
for example.
