Do I have emergency medical coverage if I become ill with COVID-19 while travelling?

Yes. You have emergency medical coverage as long as you did not have any symptoms within 90 days prior to leaving. This coverage applies even during the government’s advisory to avoid travel outside of Canada due to the pandemic.

Coverage includes, but is not limited to, hospital accommodation, physician charges and prescriptions. Please note that Emergency Air Transportation benefits may be available, when medically required and approved in advance.

Contact Global Excel Management using the applicable phone number on your benefits card before starting any medical treatment.

For complete details of emergency medical coverage, please refer to pages 50 to 67 of the Insurance Plans Booklet.
