FAQ

Common questions

Why do visitors to Canada need travel medical insurance?

Visitors can face significant medical costs in Canada, and provincial health coverage usually does not apply to visitors.

What does emergency medical travel insurance usually cover?

Plans may cover eligible emergency medical expenses, hospital care, physician services, ambulance, and related benefits, subject to policy wording.

Can pre-existing conditions be covered?

Some plans may cover stable pre-existing conditions, but stability rules and exclusions vary by insurer and policy.

Can I extend a travel insurance policy?

Extensions may be available if requested before the policy expires and if no claim or medical change affects eligibility.

Do students need special insurance?

International students may need coverage based on school requirements, province, length of stay, and eligibility for local health plans.

What is trip cancellation insurance?

Trip cancellation coverage may reimburse eligible prepaid travel costs if a covered reason prevents your trip, subject to plan terms.

Can Simmi Insurance help me compare different companies?

Yes. We can help explain available options, policy features, eligibility questions, and quote differences so you can make a more informed decision.

What information is usually needed to get started?

Helpful details may include age, coverage goal, budget, current coverage, health or travel information where relevant, and the reason you are reviewing insurance.

Can I review my existing policy?

Yes. A review can help you understand whether your current coverage still matches your family, income, debt, business, travel, or retirement needs.

Do you offer virtual consultations?

Yes. Virtual consultations make it easier to support clients throughout Ontario and provide guidance regardless of location.

How often should I review my coverage?

It is helpful to review coverage after major life changes such as marriage, a new home, children, business growth, job changes, travel plans, or retirement planning.

Is the cheapest policy always the best choice?

Not always. Price matters, but policy wording, exclusions, renewals, conversion options, waiting periods, and long-term flexibility can also be important.

Can newcomers to Canada get insurance guidance?

Yes. We help newcomers, visitors, students, families, and residents understand Canadian insurance and planning options in plain language.

How do I request a quote?
