Cost of blood test for a visitor in Alberta

[patiencewaiter]

Hello All,

I need some information regarding this issue. My father-in-law is going to visit us soon in Visitor visa (not Super Visa) and will probably stay around 6 months. However, he has to do a monthly blood test to monitor his electrolyte during his stay in Canada. I am wondering whether any insurance will cover that. Or how much it would cost me to cover the blood test on my own?

Thanks, I will appreciate your response.

Depends on the province, the lab and the type of test.

It is better if you go to a lab, they can help you better.

No insurance would cover this.
