Visitors to Canada & Travel insurance

In many instances, people travelling to Canada are not adequately protected for medical emergencies. The Visitors to Canada Plan provides emergency medical coverage and protection for travelers to Canada who do not have coverage outside of their home country or who want extra coverage over their existing plan.

 

Coverage Services:

  • Emergency Medical Expenses
    Hospital bills, prescription drugs, and other medical expenses can add up quickly while in Canada and being out of pocket for these costs can be a large burden. Having protection and coverage for these unforeseen events, can provide peace of mind and potentially save you thousands of dollars in medical bills.
     

Coverage Options:
