"I usually get my travel insurance in Canada but a friend urged me to see what you have to offer. Can you help us?

My wife (age 77) and I (age 78) winter in our Florida home for 5 months. We're in good health but we take different medications with no changes in over a year."

Canadian Snowbirds Travel Medical Insurance

I am confident in dealing with you and feel that you treat me honestly and with my interest in mind. Thank you. Allan O., Kelowna, BC
(Allan’s $100,000 claim was paid in 2008 & he’s happy to tell you about it)

Canada’s a fine place to live, except for the winters. Thankfully, your good neighbors to the south have some warm and sunny states. And we mostly speak a recognizable form of English. Plus the US Dollar has dropped in value.

Your only concern is medical insurance – Canadian plans keep going up in price while the benefits keep going down. Plus, they penalize you for following your doctor’s orders and faithfully taking your medications. Finally, if you make a claim they feel like you’re trying to cheat them.

This Snowbird Insurance plan is the
GlobalTrip Post Departure Plan

Post Departure means you get all the medical & other coverages with no trip cancellation coverage. You also must get this plan no later than the day before you leave on your trip.

Post Departure Plans for non-US residents

Note: All Prices and Benefits are in US Dollars

You have 3 GlobalTrip Post Departure plans to choose from:

  • GlobalTrip Saver PD – with $50,000 Emergency Medical coverage for up to age 89
  • GlobalTrip Classic PD – with $500,000 Emergency Medical coverage for up to age 89
  • GlobalTrip Plus PD – with $1,000,000 Emergency Medical coverage for up to age 89

Here’s how GlobalTrip defines a pre-existing condition:

Pre-existing Condition means any Injury, Sickness, condition, including chronic, or related condition (including any condition from which death ensues) of You, or Your Traveling Companion which within the 6 month period (for Age 70+ 12 month period) prior to the Effective Date of Your Protection Plan:
a) manifested itself, became acute or exhibited symptoms which would have caused one to seek diagnosis, care or treatment, whether such diagnosis care or treatment were seek or not; or
b) required taking prescribed drugs or medicine, unless the condition for which the prescribed drug or medicine is taken remains controlled without any change in the required prescription; or
c) required medical treatment or treatment was recommended by a Legally Qualified Physician.

Chronic condition means: A condition that persists for a long time and generally has a slow progression. Generally, chronic conditions cannot be prevented by vaccines or cured by medication, nor do they just disappear. For example, Diabetes, COPD & any condition that requires Coumadin (Warfarin) are chronic.

Chronic diseases are specifically listed by WHO. Click here for more information about chronic diseases.

Note: Your Effective Date is the day after you purchase your GlobalTrip PD plan
