Hello,

I got approval on my application last week. I plan to fly out next week, and was just wondering what the BC healthcare system is like, can I apply when I go over and be covered instantly? Is there a long processing time? Should I get some insurance if that is the case?

Thanks for your time,

V

1. There is a 3 month waiting period for BCMSP. So I suggest that you get private med insurance for those 3months.
 
Hi, thanks for the reply.

Do you know how much it would cost to get private insurance monthly?

I'm from the UK, I guess ive always taken free healthcare for granted!
