MEDOC <strong>PLAN</strong> BENEFITS<br />

EMERGENCY MEDICAL <strong>INSURANCE</strong><br />

The MEDOC Plan covers reasonable and customary expenses arising from a<br />

medical emergency, up to the amounts specified and a maximum aggregate of<br />

$5,000,000 per insured per illness or injury, while on an insured trip which are in<br />

excess of any deductible amount specified on your confirmation of coverage.<br />

Eligible benefit payments are in excess of any medical expenses payable by your<br />

Provincial and/or Territorial Health Insurance Plan, or any other insurance plan,<br />

for emergency treatment medically required while on a trip.<br />

attention. If you are unable to call because you are medically incapacitated<br />

reasonably possible. If you (or someone else) do not call the 24-hour MEDOC<br />

Claims Assistance Centre or if you choose to seek care from a non-recommended<br />

expenses payable under the Emergency Medical Insurance coverage.<br />
