Medical insurance for a Minor on tourist visa

[prateek2485]

Hi Experts,

I have a canada PR and my wife does too. My daughter was born in India 4 months ago, and I am trying to get her a tourist visa to come to me in canada, and then I can put her papers for PR in canada. Meanwhile, since she is only 4 months old, I want to know how to enroll her for medical insurance or benefits during her stay in canada, as she would have to undergo vaccinations etc. and I am not sure how to get that done easily on a tourist visa.

could you please suggest or guide on ways to get vaccinations done in canada for my minor on tourist visa, I will get a medical insurance for her for her travel stay, but not sure if they will cover her vaccination costs.

please advise.

thanks

You will need to pay for them as needed, as well as for general pediatrician visits.

Travel medical insurance is only for emergencies or unexpected situations, not for routine check-ups and vaccinations.
