Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Does MSP cover me outside BC?

Only partially. MSP pays out-of-country costs at BC rates, which is often a small fraction of the actual bill. Travel insurance covers the difference.

What is a stability period?

Many policies only cover pre-existing conditions that have been stable, with no changes in treatment or medication, for a set period before you travel.

Do newcomers need coverage before MSP starts?

Yes. New residents usually wait about three months for MSP. Private coverage protects you during that gap.
