As a visitor from another country, new immigrant or as a person who is in Canada on a work or student visa you're not covered by Canada's National Health Care program. Doctor bills are very expensive and emergency medical and hospital care can cost you thousands of dollars a day. Visitors Travel Insurance is a simple and affordable way of being covered for these unforeseen costs.
In the event of a medical emergency or serious accident, the Insurance for Visitors to Canada also pays for the cost of returning you home, which can be very expensive.
