Costs for emergency services are at an all-time high and show no sign of reprieve. Students studying abroad and on fixed incomes are especially susceptible to medical expenses, and the last thing they want to spend these fixed monies on is an unforeseen accident, or emergency medical occurrence while studying in Canada.

Considering these points, the Booth University College has worked to design and implement a reasonably priced emergency health insurance plan for a temporary coverage period while student studying in Manitoba. This plan will assist students in dealing with unforeseen medical expenses that can arise as a result of emergency medical care, accident or illness and provide support while maintaining their educational goals.

With a mandatory plan, the insurance risk is spread over a larger number of students, thereby lowering the cost per student, making the fee in a range that is affordable to students. An individual International Student Medical Plan – mycanadaplan, Powered by Morcare can cost as much as 5 times the current student fee.

No, although it is similar. Your International Student Medical Plan – mycanadaplan, Powered by Morcare provides similar coverage as to residents with provincial health care in that your emergency plan covers for emergency medical care, injury or accidents that are unforeseen while studying and residing in the province. Provincial health care in Manitoba provides coverage for doctor insured services under the province in the event of an emergency medical occurrence or physician visits.

The fees for the international emergency medical insurance plan will be assessed automatically by the institution at registration and will be added to your student account.
