Travel Insurance
Planning a trip or vacation can be a very exciting experience - one filled with anticipation and high hopes. Apart from the fun and excitement, however, planning a trip can also be stressful and overwhelming. There is so much to consider and there never seems to be enough time to get it all done. Whether you are going somewhere exotic or just across the border, purchasing Travel Insurance should be on the top of your checklist of things to do before you leave, regardless of how long you’ll be away. Ironically, it’s the one thing many people fail to do.
As Canadians, we often take our access to universal healthcare for granted. If we fall ill or get into an accident, we go to the doctor or hospital without having to worry about the cost of a visit or hospitalization. Our prescription drugs are subsidized and affordable, and we are never denied treatment. It’s no wonder we don’t give taking out Travel Insurance the consideration it deserves.
Simply put, travelling without Travel Insurance means taking an unnecessary risk, which could result in paying out of your own pocket to cover unforeseen medical expenses. Your government-sponsored healthcare plan provides limited coverage when you travel outside of Canada and a simple visit to the doctor or the need to purchase medical supplies could set you back considerably.
By purchasing Travel Insurance you can travel with peace of mind knowing you are protected against the cost of medical expenses, including doctor visits, hospitalization and prescription drugs while on vacation.
In addition, Travel Insurance provides coverage against trip cancellation costs, lost or stolen valuables and lost luggage.
