FAQs about working holiday visa insurance
If your destination is Canada, you can purchase a travel insurance policy from an insurance company based in another country, but keep in mind that a Canadian insurance company knows and understands the Canadian healthcare system and has the expertise to help you find the best care. Canadian hospitals are familiar with these Canadian insurers, which can simplify your claims process and save you from having to pay thousands of dollars upfront during an emergency and waiting for reimbursement.
If you leave Canada, Canadian insurance companies work with assistance services to ensure that you receive care that is equal to or better than what you would receive if you were in Canada. Thanks to their global networks, Canadian companies are able to provide you with quality medical care wherever you are when you need it the most.
Our plans are designed for today’s travelers entering or leaving Canada. Whether for short or long stays, our plans are easy to renew if you decide to extend your stay.
