I'm looking into that. A friend is going to the Philippines later in the year to visit her family and she has invited me to join her. I'll probably go.

I'm 76 so most companies won't consider me at all. You can get coverage before 65 which can continue to 99 but it's difficult to start coverage at my age. The only other coverage I could find had a $10,000US deductible but still cost $570US so almost $800Cdn. Unfortunately I only found out recently that the coverage I have through my previous employer will cover hospital stays if I move out of Canada but no treatment in hospital. It doesn't make sense but that's what it is so it doesn't meet the requirements.

I know 2 women who don't. They are terrified of being scammed the instant they get a smartphone. There is no helping them.
