Visitors to Canada

Emergency medical coverage for people visiting Canada.

Provincial health plans do not cover most visitors. A visitors-to-Canada policy pays emergency medical bills from an illness or injury during the trip, subject to the medical questionnaire and the policy wording.

People usually ask about

  • Super visa parents and grandparents
  • Maximum age and pre-existing condition rules
  • Deductible and stability period
  • How to extend a policy before it expires

Request emergency medical coverage for visitors, work/study visa holders, or people in Canada who are not covered by a provincial health plan. An advisor will confirm rates after the medical questionnaire.
