Additional Health Insurance

Additional health insurance is available throughout Canada to supplement the cost of health services not insured by the provincial or federal government such as:

  • Prescription drugs
  • Dental
  • Eye care
  • Medical equipment (wheelchairs, prostheses)

Complementary health care is often provided or sponsored through employee benefits, but individual private health care plans can also be purchased.
