I know she can go to walk clinic, but what I mean that she likes to go to hospital to make a check up because she sick, and she like to take the Canadian doctor opinion about her situation. because of that I ask about insurance she can buy one and how much it will cost her.
Thank you very much for your answer

If you are planning to get her insurance, you should definitely do it before she comes because then she will not have a waiting period. With the Visitors to Canada insurance, you can go to a walk in clinic, but there has to be a reason why you would go, as they do not cover regular check ups. There has to be something that requires immediate medical attention. If you need more information, you can call our office at 1-877-211-4301

You can get travel insurance. In case she doesn't want it. Don't go to the hospital first it will cost about 500 just to see the doctor. A walk in clinic will be less then 100 dollars.
