Dear all,

Could you kindly suggest me insurance for my wife. She's 7th month pregnant. And we need to do 15 days of quarantine followed by an application for OIHP (before it kicks in).

Kindly suggest the best insurance companies from whom I can take the policy?

She won't qualify for coverage of her pregnancy. You will need to do 14 days of quarantine. Would be extremely careful about travelling as Canada is on it's 3rd wave of covid, there are covid cases arriving on planes into and within Canada and pregnant women are more likely to have severe cases of covid. Someone posted yesterday that their pregnant wife was in the ICU and was trying to have her mother travel for emergency reasons.

Hey thanks. I'm traveling today, so I will pray for the best.

Why do you say there will be no coverage?

A few insurance companies do offer till 8th month.

OIHP should be fine after quarantine ?

May God be with you.

This pandemic is indeed troublesome.

Please be financially prepared for any expenses due to medical cost. There are insurance companies that offer insurance BUT most I know will not cover pregnancy if she is already pregnant. Many do not cover pregnancy at ALL.
