Moving to Canada Health Insurance?
May 13, 2009 | 1 Comment
Hey all,
I wanted to know if anyone has an idea of how much individual health insurance will cost me monthly in Canada. I will be a student. If I can be referred to insurance companies would be great or a general monthly quote.
Thanks
If you will be a resident of Canada for over 6 months then look up the provincial Health Insurance Plan for students who are studying at a Canadian college or university.
If you want only private insurance then you Should try the Great West Life Insurance Co. they have offices in every major city in Canada. Insurance depends on your age, your health, whether or not you are under or over 18 years of age. If your parents have a group health insurance plan, you may already be covered under their plans.
Talk to your educational counsellor – some places cover their students with an alumni plan. One needs a lot more information about you so as to give you a correct answer.
