    Go through the insurance with a highlight marker, and then mark your concerns. Get answers to your questions before you go. For pre-existing conditions, some only allow them to be stable for 3 months beforehand, others 6 months.

    Speaking as a senior, I would never rely on a credit card for emergency medical travel insurance. Most seniors are on some sort of medication and/or have pre-existing conditions. Most travel insurance, both CC and private, has a long list of conditions and exclusions. You usually only find out about them AFTER you make a claim.

    If you’re concerned about emergency medical situations when you travel outside Canada, then find a travel insurer who will cover you without excluding pre-existing conditions or at least make sure they tell you beforehand what you’re actually covered for based on your specific medical conditions. Naturally, expect to pay more, perhaps a lot more, than younger people for coverage that you can actually rely on should you need it.

    Otherwise you’re just gambling.
