Even though your government or group insurance plan may pay for some medical and emergency hospital costs outside of Canada, it may only cover a small percentage of the overall costs or have limitations. That means that without adequate travel insurance, you may be personally responsible for paying medical bills that could amount to thousands of dollars.

Did you know that even a one week stay at a hospital in the USA could cost as much as USD $60,000? Depending on which plan you choose and what features are covered under that plan, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with worry-free travel for just a small premium. At Macnaughton & Ward Financial Services, we have the travel insurance that's right for you, so speak to an advisor who can help you choose the right plan for your travel needs.
