i need to get private emergency health insurance for at least 3-4 months when i start my new job in geneva in sep.
i've done a bit of research on the different co's but i thought i'd check back with you guys to hear your suggestions on what company could provide me with a decently priced quote.
thanks! :) |

Liberty Health (now The Maritime Life Assurance Company) @ http://www.coverme.com or Blue Cross @ http://www.bluecross.ca are good options.
I used Blue Cross for out of country for my GF (who didn't have it at the time through work) and it was uber-easy, online form, credit card payment, pdf delivery of the documents. |

thanks for the useful info, RJ!
i had actually already checked out the Blue Cross; - so in comparison to Maritime Life and others, it is, to date, still the best and cheapest option! ;) |

I use Blue Cross and I'm happy with it so far.
btw, I thought Canada had a public health system? :rolleyes: |
