Annual Travel Insurance

Travel is full of unexpected adventures. But it can also be full of unexpected setbacks.

If you have a medical emergency and you are out of your home province, you may not know where to turn, who to talk to or how to deal with it. This is where we come in.

Travel with fewer worries slowing you down

When you enroll in a Victor Health or Health & Dental Insurance Plan, consider adding Victor Annual Travel Insurance. With the extra coverage, you can travel with confidence, knowing that help is always by your side.

Please note

The Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan must be purchased at the time of enrollment in a Victor Health or Health & Dental Insurance Plan. It cannot be purchased on its own. The Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan is underwritten by The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company.

Plan benefits and eligibility

You and/or your spouse must be covered under the Government Health Insurance Plan of your province or territory of residence (such as OHIP) and have your permanent residence in Canada to enroll in the Annual Travel Insurance Plan.

When you and/or your spouse apply for the Victor Health Insurance Plan, this will be the only chance to enroll in the Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan. When you’re accepted in the Victor Health Insurance Plan, you’re guaranteed acceptance into the Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan.

If you and your spouse are enrolling in the Victor Health Insurance Plan as a couple and you are adding the Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan, you must take couple coverage for both plans.

Choose the plan that meets your travel needs. With coverage for trips of up to 180 days of the year. This includes:

  • Up to $5 million of coverage per insured person, per trip (certain benefit limits apply)
  • Favourable stability period for pre-existing medical conditions
    - Three months for high blood pressure and six months for other conditions
  • Once enrolled, there is no maximum age limit for coverage
  • The trip duration may be changed annually, with no medical questions

If you are taking a longer trip than your Victor Annual Travel Insurance Plan allows, you can contact our travel insurance provider directly at 1-833-389-1087 to purchase a separate, individual travel insurance plan for the additional days.

They also offer non-medical coverage, which includes trip cancellation, trip interruption, baggage and personal effects benefits, and more.

After enrollment, you’ll be given a medical assistance card with emergency telephone numbers, which you must call before getting medical assistance, in the event of a medical emergency.
