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 Suncrest College has worked to design and implement a reasonably priced emergency health insurance plan for a temporary coverage period while student studying in Saskatchewan. 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.

No although it is similar. Your international emergency medical insurance plan provides similar coverage 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 Saskatchewan 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 student medical plan will be assessed automatically by the institution at registration and is mandatory for a 60-day term while international students apply for Saskatchewan Provincial Health Services plan. There is no opt-out option for this plan.
