health insurance

Post Reply New Topic

I did not realize when I started my new job that it did not come with health insurance (for some reason, I forgot that as part of my description, they just allocated a lump sum toward whichever plan I wanted).

Since then, I have gotten my HFA diagnosis.

Is this enough to make me barred from getting insurance in Canada?

If so, this would be my only thing I do not like about diagnosis.

'twould suck.

I think it would help you, though I am not familiar with Canada's Healthcare system/laws

I thought everyone had health insurance in Canada.

I forgot to mention that i am having a small minor procedure done. So minor that it is a papilloma in my breast, and I was put off indefinitely until the last couple days. But I had to declare it as it is in my medical files.

You get a base minimum through the government here. But it is not enough, say, to cover eyeglasses, seeing the eye doctor, the dentist or cancer drugs. For those things, you need the health insurance to cover them. Basic coverage from the government includes specialist visits who are medical doctors, but not anything like a psychologist of chiropodist.
