Canadians travelling out of province within Canada may not be aware that their provincial health plan does not fully cover them if they are sick or injured and need medical attention.

The Government of British Columbia strongly advises residents to purchase additional health insurance when travelling to other Canadian Provinces.

Medical coverage under MSP is not guaranteed while travelling outside of British Columbia, but is covered while travelling within Canada under Travel Medical insurance.
