Travel Insurance Benefits

Government health benefits in Canada cover very little when you’re abroad. Traveling without private health insurance is risky because the health care anywhere is expensive, especially If you decide to travel to somewhere remote. Buying travel insurance can be strait forward if you’re young and healthy but the more you age, the more complicated your health can becomes which adds complexities to the idea of insurance.

The more you age, the more important it becomes to understand how your insurance company treats pre-existing health conditions. What is considered a pre-existing health condition? That can vary by insurance provider and it can affect coverage.

If you’re serious about having the right coverage in place while you travel, it’s important that you choose a suitable policy from the right provider. Let one of our brokers help you find the right coverage, so you don’t have to worry while you travel.

How Prices Are Determined

There are three main determining factors when pricing travel insurance; age, the claim deductible amount and whether any pre-existing health conditions require coverage. Generally, the older you get, the more expensive the health insurance but exceptions do exist. 

Some plans will exclude coverage on pre-existing medical conditions but other will cover them if they have been stable for a predetermined period. These predetermined periods may vary by provider and so can the definition of stability. Some plans may even cover more recent medical complications, but these plans are approved on a case by case basis. If you’re medical status is complicated, it important that you speak with a qualified broker to find the right coverage.  

A claim deductible is amount you would pay up front in the event of a claim. The higher the deductible amount, the lower the cost.

We would be happy to provide advice as to which policy is the most suitable. For help determining policy suitability, please fill out medical questionnaire.
