We recommend that you purchase your medical insurance before you leave your country of origin. Otherwise, a waiting period of 48 - 72 hours (depending on insurer) will apply to benefits.
If you have been in Canada more than 30 days, you may not be eligible for Blue Cross plans, but can still purchase TIC plans. Please refer to further details below.
You can purchase interim medical insurance for you and your family while you are visiting Canada.
The Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan (OHIP) does not cover visitors. Hospitals in Ontario Canada can cost $3,000 for 1 night ... plus doctors' fees. Don't leave yourself unprotected!
While we recommend that you purchase your medical insurance before you leave your country of origin, you still qualify for coverage. In this situation, illness that occurs in the first 48 hours is not covered. Your accident coverage begins immediately.
