VHIP is the acronym for Visa Students Health Insurance Program, which
is a provincial health insurance replacement plan designed specially for
international visa students pursuing their education here in Canada.
The moment you land in Canada, you are going to experience a new life
in a new environment. While being far away from home living in an
exciting and diversified culture, you must also take steps to protect
yourself financially in case of sudden illnesses or accidents.
In addition to the excellent medical services found here in Canada, by
signing up for VHIP coverage, you know that you will be well taken care
of both medically and financially if such need arises.
There are many choices in length of coverage, as you can see from the
chart to the right. Depends on how long your stay in Canada is, you are
almost guaranteed that there is always a plan to fit your needs.
