The McGill International Health Insurance Plan is mandatory for all registered international students.
McGill requires all registered international students and their accompanying dependent spouse to participate in the compulsory McGill International Health Insurance (IHI) plan which is administered by International Student Services. For more information on who is covered please visit our who's covered page.
All international students are automatically charged the annual IHI fee upon registration at McGill University in the fall and winter terms. Summer is an exception.
Non-resident Canadian students or new Permanent Residents who are not eligible for the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec(RAMQ) and have no insurance coverage or whose private insurance is not adequate, have the option of enrolling in McGill's International Student Health Insurance (IHI) Plan.
The insurance provider is Medavie Blue Cross.
