Canada's provincial health plans cover basic medical services like doctor visits and hospital stays β€” but they don't cover everything. Prescription drugs, dental care, vision care, and paramedical services are largely your responsibility. Private Health Insurance fills these gaps and gives you and your family complete protection.

At Ourinsurenase, we help you find the right health insurance plan from Canada's top providers. Whether you're self-employed, retired, between jobs, or looking for coverage beyond your employer's group plan, we have a solution for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between provincial health coverage and private health insurance?

Provincial health plans (like MSP in BC or OHIP in Ontario) cover basic medical services like doctor visits and hospital stays. Private health insurance covers what provincial plans don't β€” prescription drugs, dental, vision, paramedical services, private hospital rooms, and more. Think of private insurance as filling the gaps in your provincial coverage.

Can I get health insurance if I have pre-existing conditions?

Yes, many health insurance plans accept pre-existing conditions. Some plans have a waiting period (e.g., 6 months) before covering pre-existing conditions, while others may exclude specific conditions. We also offer guaranteed-acceptance plans with no medical questions. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.

How much does health insurance cost in Canada?

The cost depends on your age, location, plan type, coverage level, and number of dependents. Individual plans typically start from $40–$80 per month, while family plans range from $100–$250 per month. Premium plans with full coverage cost more. Contact us for a free personalized quote.

Is health insurance tax-deductible for self-employed individuals?

Yes! If you're self-employed, you may be able to deduct health insurance premiums as a business expense on your taxes. This can significantly reduce the effective cost of your coverage. We recommend consulting with your accountant or tax advisor for specific guidance.

Can I customize my health insurance plan?

Absolutely. We offer flexible plans that let you choose the coverage you need. You can add or remove coverage for dental, vision, drugs, paramedical services, and more. Our advisors will help you build a plan that fits your needs and budget.

What is the difference between Health Insurance and Critical Illness Insurance?

Health Insurance covers ongoing medical expenses like drugs, dental, and paramedical services. Critical Illness Insurance pays a one-time lump sum if you're diagnosed with a specific illness like cancer or heart attack. They complement each other β€” Health Insurance covers day-to-day medical costs, while Critical Illness covers major life events.

Can I keep my health insurance if I change jobs?

Yes! Individual health insurance is portable β€” it stays with you regardless of your employment status. Unlike group plans that end when you leave a job, your individual coverage continues as long as you pay your premiums.

Does health insurance cover dental work?

Yes, most of our health insurance plans include dental coverage. Basic plans cover routine cleanings, exams, and fillings. Comprehensive plans also cover major dental work like root canals, crowns, and dentures. You can also purchase standalone dental insurance if that's your primary need.
