Visitors to Canada Emergency Medical Insurance - Claims
- 19 days ago
Every year we welcome countless visitors to Canada. These visitors may be visiting for various reasons under a variety of visas. The most common reasons and visa used to visit Canada include:
- Tourists and family visits (single or multiple entry visas)
- Parents and grandparents (multiple entry or super visas)
- Students (IEC visa or student visas)
These visitors are not covered under Canada’s universal health care system – meaning the Canadian government does not pay for any hospital or medical services which are used by visitors due to a medical emergency.
The Government of Canada and all provinces/territories advise visitors to Canada to purchase the necessary emergency medical coverage they require while visiting. Read more about why you need travel insurance the next time you visit Canada.
