Medical emergencies can happen to any of us. If you or a loved one is on vacation outside the country and needs medical attention, you may be surprised to discover that many government health plans cover as little as 10 percent of your out-of-province medical bills. In such situations, you may end up paying thousands of dollars towards medical costs which may ruin your finances.

Travel Insurance is intended to help you in such situations. Below are some examples of what a typical plan could cover;

• Air or ground ambulance transportation
• Prescription drugs
• Hospitalization
• Dental emergencies
• Medical transportation to your home province
