Costs for emergency services are at an all-time high and show no sign of reprieve. Students studying abroad and on fixed incomes are especially susceptible to medical expenses, and the last thing they want to spend these fixed monies on is an unforeseen accident, or emergency medical occurrence while studying in Canada.

Considering these points, the Red River College Polytechnic SA has worked to design and implement a reasonably priced emergency medical insurance plan for the duration of a students benefit year as determined by their study term. This plan will assist students in dealing with unforeseen medical expenses that can arise as a result of emergency medical care, accident or illness and provide support while maintaining their educational goals.

With a mandatory plan, the insurance risk is spread over a larger number of students, thereby lowering the cost per student, making the fee in a range that is affordable to students. An individual International Student Medical Insurance Plan can cost as much as 5 times the current student fee.
