Yes. You are not limited to the health insurance coverage provided by the government in the province or territory where you live. People who are self-employed still have many options when it comes to choosing and purchasing additional health insurance to cover expenses not included in government-funded insurance plans. There are many private companies that provide health insurance coverage to individuals. The plans available can vary widely in terms of the cost of premium and depth of coverage, so it’s important to do your research and ask questions before selecting a health insurance plan.
