Student Insurance

At most Canadian educational institutions, health insurance is mandatory. Access to government medical coverage for international students is not available in most provinces, so students must arrange for private health insurance coverage. In provinces where the government medical plan is available, it may be subject to limitations or wait times.

An International Student or Visitors to Canada plan ensures that you aren’t left with a $100,000 hospital bill after a major accident or an unexpected medical emergency. Just as important, though, are the other benefits – such as the 24/7 emergency assistance to help guide you through an unexpected emergency and monitor your case to make sure you’re receiving appropriate care. You can also be covered to bring a family member to your bedside, or to get you home with a medical attendant if necessary.

It is extremely important to have insurance while you are studying in Canada. As a non-resident living in Canada, you will have to pay full price for any health care you receive. Hospital room charges have risen to over $3,000 a day in some cases. One sickness or injury can cost as much as $25,000 or more, and many hospitals request upfront payment for services. A major medical incident could easily cost over $150,000 Canadian.
