Why Your Provincial Health Plan is Not Enough (The Alberta Reality)

Many Albertans mistakenly believe their provincial health plan (AHCIP) fully covers them when they leave the province. This is a costly misconception.

The Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) offers very limited coverage for medical services outside of Canada, and even within other Canadian provinces/territories.

 

AHCIP Coverage Outside Canada:
  • Limited Reimbursement: AHCIP only pays a tiny fraction of the actual cost for emergency services outside Canada. For example, it pays a maximum of $100 CAD per day for in-patient hospital services, while the actual hospital bill in the US could be over $10,000 per day.
  • No Upfront Payment: Hospitals and clinics in foreign countries often demand immediate cash payment and may refuse treatment without proof of comprehensive medical coverage.
  • No Non-Medical Coverage: AHCIP provides zero coverage for emergency air ambulance, trip cancellation, trip interruption, or lost baggage.

Travel Insurance is essential to fill this enormous gap, saving you from financial catastrophe in a medical emergency abroad.

Travel Insurance FAQs

We prioritize clear communication to ensure every client understands their purchase—a core element of our trustworthiness.

Q: Is travel insurance required for all out-of-province trips?

A: While not legally mandatory for all trips (except for some visas, like Schengen), it is highly recommended, even for travel within Canada. Your provincial plan has limits on ambulance, medication, and overall costs outside of Alberta.

Q: I have travel insurance with my credit card. Is that enough?

A: Likely not. Credit card insurance usually has a low coverage limit (e.g., $100,000), short trip duration limits (e.g., 15 days maximum), and very strict rules regarding pre-existing conditions. We recommend reviewing it with us for a Top-Up plan to cover the gaps.

Q: Can I cancel a policy if my travel plans change?

A: Yes, you can receive a full refund if you cancel your trip before the policy’s effective date and you have not departed from your home province. Refund rules for cancellation after the effective date depend entirely on the specific policy and reason for interruption.

Q: Does the insurance cover high-risk sports?

A: Standard emergency medical plans often exclude injuries resulting from high-risk activities (e.g., heli-skiing, mountain climbing). You must purchase an optional Sports & Activities Rider to ensure coverage for these specific risks.
