According to a 2013 LIMRA study, about eight in 10 Canadians have financial concerns about the government’s ability to fund health care, the cost of long-term care, and having enough money if they become disabled or critically ill.
Supplementary health insurance starts where government coverage ends—for both routine and unexpected medical expenses.

Routine expenses: Unexpected expenses as a result of:
  • Prescription drugs
  • Dental care
  • Eye exams and eyeglasses
  • Massage therapy, physiotherapy, etc.
  • Travel by ambulance
  • Hospitalization
  • Home nursing care
  • Travel medical emergencies
