Why Canadians need travel insurance

If you’re heading to a tropical beach, cross-border shopping or visiting family or friends in another province or country—your full provincial healthcare plan won’t go with you. That means, if you experience a medical emergency away from home, you’ll be left to arrange for care and pay for it too.

Emergency Medical Insurance saves a cross-border traveller a bundle

Bryan was skateboarding in San Francisco when he fell into traffic and hit his head on the pavement. Bystanders quickly called an ambulance and Bryan was taken to a medical centre.

A CT scan showed a subdural hematoma and x-rays revealed a fractured wrist. A doctor worried about a brain bleed, admitted Bryan to the hospital. He was kept in the hospital for 2 days and given repeat CT scans and a splint.

As Bryan remained stable with no signs of any internal bleeding, he was sent home with pain medications and instructions to follow up with his family doctor once he returned to Canada.
