Can You Afford not to?

Can you afford these common costs experienced by people who have an accident or illness while travelling?

$10,000 per night accommodation (typical inpatient costs at some North American hospitals)
$4,300 per night to non-resident fees for a Canadian intensive care unit
$2,000 airfare (cost of an unexpected flight home)

If your budget doesn't allow for these expenses, medical insurance can help. Many immigrants believe that the government health insurance plans will cover them when they leave their home country, but government plans have waiting times and some limits.

If you are visiting Canada, good planning means protecting yourself against the unexpected with emergency hospital medical insurance.

Travel insurance helps protect your family, your future, and your trip against the unexpected financial burden that can arise when an emergency happens. It also means that help is just a phone call away if you encounter an emergency while travelling.
