Expatriate Medical Insurance
Employees of Canadian companies who work overseas for extended periods are often ineligible for medical insurance under any Canadian provincial health insurance plans, or their employer's group medical/hospital insurance plans.
Special Markets’ group expatriate medical program offers coverage for expatriate employees, and their accompanying family, from the first dollar spent. Our coverage can be tailored to include dental and vision insurance, plus war risk insurance if required.
Inpatriate Medical Insurance
International students studying in Canada are generally ineligible for provincial health insurance plans, and non-Canadian employees have at least a three-month waiting period to gain provincial health insurance (dependent on individual provincial policy and type of visa issued). If faced with a medical emergency during this period, medical and hospital costs can be prohibitive.
Special Markets Inpatriate Medical Insurance offers two types of medical coverage plans to non-Canadians working or studying in Canada: Base and Comprehensive. Accompanying spouses and children can also be covered under these plans.
Business or pleasure? Out-of-province or out-of-country? A few days or a few months? No matter what your clients’ travel needs, we can customize a policy that’s right for them.
Get our superior travel medical insurance as a stand-alone policy, or wrap it up in a group benefits program. If your clients travel often, choose an annual plan and wave goodbye to filling out a form before every trip.
Whatever your clients’ situation, our provisions are liberal, and our exclusions are few, so your clients get the care they deserve no matter where they are.
Not only do we help parents with the unplanned costs associated with an accident, we help school boards to reduce potential accident insurance liability claims.
Blanket student accident insurance covers students while they are at school or on sanctioned school activities. If an accident happens, this coverage reduces costs to both parents and school boards. Coverage can also be purchased for teachers and other staff members. It is ideal for licensed daycares, pre-schools, elementary and secondary schools. We also offer customized student accident insurance programs for university or college students, as well as hospital medical insurance for foreign students studying in Canada.
