Visitors to Canada Medical Insurance & Returning Canadians from Ray Battiston
21st. Century Travel Insurance Ltd, underwritten by Manulife Financial



The 21st. Century, Manulife policy is one of our best Visitor to Canada Medical Insurance Plans. It can be purchased prior to arrival for immediate coverage on arrival,  with no age limit.  It can also be purchased after arrival, subject to a waiting period as described below. Unlike most visitors plans,  it can cover stable pre-existing conditions  right up to age 85, as defined in the policy.   Applicants age 70 -85 will have to answer "no" to two short questions on the Medical Declaration in order to qualify for Stable Chronic Condition coverage. Younger visitors will have to have stable medical conditions (details in policy wording).

Yes, there is a difference in coverage with Visitors Insurance plans. Always ask your Broker if Pre-existing medical conditions can be covered! This plan DOES cover stable chronic conditions as outlined in the policy wording. (up to age 69, optionally age 70-85)

Manulife  Insurance "brands" different programs. This particular program is another Manulife variation sold by over 700 Agents and Brokers, including our office. The premium rate charged by all 700 plus Brokers through this program are exactly the same.  We are proud to be one of the  largest and oldest producing Brokers contracted with 21st Century Travel Insurance Ltd.
