Do You Need Travel Medical Insurance?
You most certainly do! Canadians travelling abroad have only limited coverage under their government health plan while visitors to Canada would not be covered under a government health plan. Medical costs could ruin you if you have to pay them from your own pocket. Let the insurance company worry about these costs while you enjoy your travel.
Global Expatriate Plans
When you live outside your country of normal residence your government health plan will not cover you. Expatriate medical insurance is designed for persons who are not covered under a government health insurance plan or are waiting for coverage in the country in which they intend to live.
