Pregnancy
How and where to get the support you need.
If you become pregnant while you are covered by your Blue Cross health insurance for international students, your pregnancy-related medical expenses, as well as the delivery of a baby, will be covered.
To be eligible for coverage, the pregnancy must begin during the policy period or within one month prior to the effective date of the policy (except if this plan replaces a similar coverage you had with a group insurance plan offered by a recognized Canadian educational institution for a period of 12 consecutive months immediately prior to the present coverage).
Note: Your newborn will be covered under the Quebec government’s medicare program (RAMQ), not Blue Cross.
