We recommend that you purchase your medical insurance prior to your arrival within Canada. Otherwise, a waiting period of 48 - 72 hours (depending on insurer) will apply to benefits.
Some plans must be purchased within 30 days of your arrival to Canada in order to be eligible for buying coverage. Please refer to further details below or call us for personal assistance.
You can purchase interim medical insurance for you and your family while you are waiting to qualify for OHIP following a lengthy absence from Canada. There is a 90-day waiting period before you will be eligible for OHIP.
Check the OHIP information below for more details and be sure to get personal medical insurance in the meantime. Hospitals in Ontario can cost $3,000 for 1 night ... plus doctors' fees. Don't leave yourself unprotected!
