Emergency medical insurance.
We offer a variety of Emergency Medical Plans. Some of the benefits are:
Emergency Medical Treatment
Applies to hospital accommodations, physician’s fees, lab tests and X-rays, private duty nursing and ambulance service.
Medical Repatriation
When medically necessary, Emergency Medical Repatriation allows you to be transported safely to a medical facility for treatment, avoiding out-of-pocket expenses.
Return of Vehicle
If you're badly injured or hospitalized, the Return of Vehicle benefit will cover the reasonable expense to have your personal or rental vehicle returned, providing you with that extra peace of mind.
Virtual Emergency Medical Assistance4
In addition, Virtual Emergency Medical Assistance and House Call Service gives you immediate access to more convenient ways to seek emergency medical treatment by providing you with 24/7 real-time access to medical professionals via virtual healthcare without having to travel to an urgent care or emergency room (ER) facility. When travelling in Ontario, you may access up to 4 virtual visits with a licenced Canadian medical doctor via live video conference link on their smartphone or other mobile device. When travelling internationally and in Canada, but outside of Ontario, you have unlimited number of virtual visits.
Trip cancellation and interruption insurance.
Protect your prepaid travel arrangements, just in case a situation arises that you didn't expect.
Trip Cancellation
Trip Cancellation covers the non-refundable portion of your trip. So if you have to cancel for an unforeseen reason, you can get your money back.
Trip Interruption
If your trip is interrupted, your coverage will look after items such as the cost of a return ticket if you have to return home early due an emergency.
BounceBack
Have to go home to deal with an emergency? The BounceBack benefit gives you up to $2,000 towards a round-trip ticket to get you home and then back to your vacation.
