    Special features

    Monthly Payment Option

    Available on all plans for policies of $100,000 or more. Spread your premium across monthly payments instead of paying in full upfront.

    Two-Year Policy Option

    Available on all plans for policies of $100,000 or more. Lock in coverage for a full 24 months instead of renewing annually.

    Additional $50,000 Injury Coverage

    Included at no extra cost on the $100,000+ option for Standard and Enhanced plans. Not included on the Basic Plan.

    90-Day Provision

    Available on Standard and Enhanced plans. A previously claimed condition may become eligible for coverage again after 90 days of stability — without any new symptoms, worsening, new medication or treatment, or hospitalization related to that condition. Not included on the Basic Plan.

    Automatic extensions

    • Up to 72 hours if your common carrier is delayed
    • Up to 5 days if a medical emergency prevents travel (without hospitalization)
    • Full hospitalization period plus up to 5 days after discharge (maximum 365 days) if hospitalized on the expiry date

    Side-trips outside Canada — before, during, and after

    Coverage extends to side-trips in any other country (excluding your country of origin), whether taken before you arrive in Canada, during your stay, or after you depart Canada.

    • You must remain continuously insured with no gaps in coverage
    • Combined time outside Canada cannot exceed 30 days within any 365-day period — renewable for each subsequent 365-day period if you stay insured
    • You must be in Canada, or have a planned insured visit to Canada, for at least 51% of your total insured time
    • Proof of all travel dates will be required if you file a claim
    • Trips to your country of origin are not covered under this provision

    If your side trip runs longer than permitted

    If a side-trip runs longer than permitted, or if you return to your country of origin, your coverage is suspended for that period rather than ended — it resumes automatically once you're back in Canada.

    Refunds

    • Full refund up to the effective date if no claim has been paid or denied
    • Partial refund for early return to your country of origin, provided no claim has been paid or denied
    • If a claim has been paid, a $300 handling fee per claim applies; a denied claim carries a $500 handling fee
    • All refunds are subject to approval by 21st Century
