Paramedical Services 80%

Your plan covers up to $40 per visit within $400 per practitioner per benefit year for licensed paramedical services.

  • If your provincial health plan covers part of the cost, your student plan pays only after the provincial plan's maximum is reached.
  • Coverage is based on reasonable and customary charges; to check the maximum reimbursement for paramedical services, log in to the My Canada Life app and check your "coverage and balances" under "Benefits".
  • Practitioners must be registered in the province where care is provided.

Licensed Ambulance Services 80%

To a maximum of $250 per occurrence. This coverage is applied after the provincial deduction.

The plan covers a licensed ground ambulance or emergency air service that transports the patient (student) to the nearest hospital equipped to provide the required treatment when the physical condition of the patient prevents the use of another means of transportation.
