Traveling is exciting—but unexpected medical emergencies can quickly turn an adventure into a financial nightmare. Emergency medical travel insurance is essential protection for anyone leaving their home province or country.
Here’s why it matters:
- Out-of-country medical care is expensive. Provincial health plans cover very little outside Canada. In the U.S., a hospital stay can cost $5,000–$10,000 per day, and emergency services like surgery, ambulance transport, or ICU care can reach hundreds of thousands of dollars. Without insurance, you’re personally responsible for these costs.
- Comprehensive coverage for peace of mind. Our AwayCare Senior Guard plan offers more than basic medical protection. It can include:
- Hospitalization and surgery
- Diagnostic tests and prescription drugs
- Ground or air ambulance services
- Emergency dental work
- Medical transportation or repatriation back home
- Optional Activity Rider coverage for extreme sports and adventure travel
With coverage in place, you can truly relax and enjoy your trip without worrying about “what ifs.”
Protection for visitors and travelers alike. Whether you’re welcoming loved ones from abroad or heading out on your own journey, AwayCare has a plan to fit your needs:
- True North Visitors to Canada protects visitors against unexpected medical emergencies during their stay.
