Série Longévité (Ep 1) : Assurance voyage 101

HeartLife Foundation and the Canadian Heart Function Alliance are delighted to launch our new Longevity Series! Each month, we'll explore a different topic, from financial products and services to conversations with clinicians, researchers, and patient partners.

The Government of Canada and the Canadian Medical Association agree that travel insurance is essential when travelling abroad. Yet many people living with heart conditions have been told "no" by an insurance company, or simply don't know where to turn for help.

Our first session is here to change that. Join licensed advisor and heart attack survivor Wayne Sandvik, founder of It's All Here (Canada's first financial website built for people with medical issues), as he walks us through:

- Why your provincial or territorial health plan may cover little or none of your medical costs outside Canada
- The pros and limits of your options: group benefit plans, travel agents, credit card coverage, and insurance brokers
- How to find coverage that includes pre-existing medical conditions
- Single-trip vs. annual multi-trip plans, snowbird coverage, trip cancellation, and baggage insurance
- What to ask before you buy, and where to get support if a claim runs into trouble

Whether you're planning a winter getaway, visiting family, or simply want peace of mind, this session will help you travel with confidence.

Free to attend. The Zoom link will be sent to you once you register. We would love to see you there!
