WHAT IS TRAVEL MEDICAL INSURANCE?
This coverage is a must-have when traveling outside your home province or Canada. This what we usually refer to when we think about travel insurance.
By covering medical emergencies, while you are traveling, this insurance gives you with peace of mind knowing that if ever your health is in jeopardy or you get into an accident, you will not incur medical costs.
WHAT IS COVERED?
This insurance will cover you for 1 trip for any medical emergencies that you may have.
Here’s what is usually covered:

- Return of deceased
- Accidental death
- Prescribed medication
- Emergency dental treatment
- Paramedical services
- Repatriation
- Ambulance
- Vehicle return

WHY DO YOU NEED MEDICAL COVERAGE WHEN YOU TRAVEL?
This insurance is particularly important for international travelers and students as standard provincial health insurance plans won’t cover most of the medical bills while you’re in another country. Travel medical insurance coverage is absolutely essential as the hospital fees can easily climb to the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
