Jason Cummings and Gwyneth Laidlaw outside the Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg where, for the 12th year, DCIS participated at the CBA Immigration Law Conference.

A new resident’s healthcare checklist BEFORE MOVING TO CANADA * Learn about Medicare eligibility and enrolment rules in the Province/Territory you will move to. If you are moving to a Province or Territory with a Medicare waiting period, or if due to your immigration status or short duration of stay you won’t be eligible for Medicare, then… * After researching your options, buy interim medical insurance and let family or close friends know of your insurance details. * Bring a copy of your medical records with you to Canada. AFTER ARRIVAL IN CANADA * Apply for Medicare in your new home Province/Territory as soon as possible. * Until you receive your government health coverage, carry your interim insurance ID card, and a photocopy of your Canadian immigration document to prove your resident status. * Learn about extended health and dental plans available to cover the types of healthcare expenses that your provincial plan does not cover. * Do not leave Canada without buying travel medical insurance because Medicare offers negligible coverage outside Canada! * If you will have extended absences outside your home Province/Territory, confirm if you meet minimum eligibility requirements for Medicare. If extended absences make you ineligible for Medicare you will want to consider buying an international (private) health plan. * Ensure that your visiting family and friends have emergency medical coverage for Canada!
