Travel Insurance

Whether it is a hard-earned vacation, a weekend getaway, a business trip or a ’round the world cruise, your travel plans should include insurance. Yes, Manitoba Health will pay for part of your care if you become ill or injured outside the province, but in many cases, it is just a fraction of the total cost you will have to pay. Protect yourself and your family from unnecessary expense and worry with a travel health plan. We have several options to choose from and our knowledgeable staff will help choose the one that is right for you.

When it comes to travelling, make your plans, then take one of ours.

FAQ’s

1. If I am travelling only within Canada, why do I need extra travel health coverage?

Manitoba Health will pay a portion of your out-of-province health care expenses, but the difference between what this partial reimbursement is and what your total cost might be, could be substantial. Plus, Manitoba Health will only cover you for certain parts of your health care – items like ambulance costs and prescriptions are NOT covered.

Why risk it when travel plans are so affordable?

2. Can I get coverage to protect the cost of my vacation?

Definitely! The companies we represent have excellent products like trip cancellation insurance and all-inclusive tour packages. Typically, these have to be purchased within 72 hours of making any non-refundable payments, so call us for details before you book!

3. Will my everyday medical needs, such as insulin or on-going prescriptions be covered by a travel health plan?

No! Travel health plans are designed specifically to cover you for sudden unexpected illness or accident. They will not cover your usual day-to-day requirements.
