Medical insurance in Canada?
What have you done for medical insurance while traveling in Canada? I am retired military and have Tricare and closing in on Medicare. From what I understand neither are accepted in Canada.

In this case the old system of "information printed on paper" is preferred, in a emergency medical situation
Even that is fading away rapidely.
Most provinces have introduced their version of (Electronic Medical Record)where all medical records are made available to doctors in case of emergency. (medical history, prescription drugs, special allergies,scan and XRays, past lab tests reports,and +++) all available on line in a matter of seconds.
And there no need for specific insurance info in Canada. Everybody is covered by our health care system.
