Travel insurance

for Canadian students abroad and international students

Planning to study abroad? Although this stay is sure to be rich in new experiences, life goes on and health issues can happen anywhere at any time. Without a policy tailored to your needs, you could lose sleep over things other than your exams, such as the cost of checkups, eye exams and medical care of all kinds.

This plan is designed specifically for you if you are planning to further your education outside of Canada. It protects you against unexpected costs resulting from a serious accident or medical emergency.

Your provincial health plan will only cover a portion of your medical expenses when you travel abroad. That’s why it’s essential to obtain insurance coverage for your emergency medical care before leaving your home province. Such a policy covers hospitalization, emergency medical care and repatriation, among other things. It’s best to be prepared for the unexpected as these costs are usually exorbitant. Please note that to be eligible for this product, you must be covered by your provincial health insurance plan for the entire duration of your stay outside your province of residence.

This insurance covers the following in the event of a serious accident or medical emergency:

• Emergency medical care: coverage for any health emergency or injury
• Dental with a maximum limit
• Repatriation in the event of death: transportation of the mortal remains to the province or country of residence.
• Travel expenses for a loved one to be at your bedside
• Public transportation accident
• 24/7 assistance
• Annual physical exam
• Eye exam
• Prescription drugs
• Psychiatric and psychological care
• Other professional medical services

If you are an international student planning to further your education in Canada, this policy is designed specifically for you and your dependents. It covers the unexpected costs that arise as a result of an accident or medical emergency.

As an international student, you are not covered by our national health insurance, so a simple visit to the doctor can cost a lot of money. Hospitalization, for example, can cost thousands of dollars. If you’re an international student, or someone close to you is, it’s important to be protected from unforeseen events that could jeopardize your financial future.

This insurance covers the following in the event of a serious accident or medical emergency:

• Dental care after a blow to the mouth that damages healthy teeth
• Repatriation in the event of death: transportation of the mortal remains to the country of residence
• Travel expenses for a loved one to be at your bedside
• Public transportation accident

• Eye exam
• Prescription drugs
