I am leaving Canada for the first time this April, going to California for 6-9 days.
I want to purchase some Travel Health Insurance just to be safe…how do I go about getting the travel health insurance, and which companies do you recommend (and anything else I should know)?
thank you
CAA, Blue Cross, Co-operators etc, and your bank all sell it, as well as does any company who sell insurance for your home. The prices do differ, so phone around and get the best rate, you can also check online for the travel insurance. You really do not need all the extra insurance they will try to sell you like travel interruption, baggage, etc. It is more for a hospital visit that you will want it for.
I would call your bank first to see what kind of rates they offer, and then where ever you get your house insurance.
The automobile clubs sell it, I don’t think you have to be a member. Most travel agents will be able to point you towards it, and you should also be able to buy it through Blue Cross. If you have extended health care through work, ask exactly what your coverage is for US travel.

Anyplace that sells insurance will likely sell you travel insurance. If you have the time shop around because rates can fluctuate greatly from one company to another.
If you live in British Columbia try Coast Capital. I’ve always found their rates to be pretty good.
One more thing – if you are on a company extended health benefits plan you might already be covered for travel insurance. Check that before putting out good money for something you might not need.
