For example, most health insurance providers will require you to have provincial health coverage before you can be eligible for a personal plan. Some insurance companies may also ask you to complete a medical exam. If you have a pre-existing condition, you may be denied medical coverage or offered limited benefits. And if you’re retiring or leaving your job, you must apply for health insurance within 60 days of losing your current coverage. In most cases, you’ll also need to meet the insurance provider’s age requirements — applicants for this type of medical insurance often need to be 74 or younger.
