  provincial health plans becomes essential. This
  guide explores the intricacies of
  maintaining Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP)
  and Medical Services Plan of British Columbia
  (MSP BC) coverage while living abroad and how

OHIP and MSP BC Abroad A Guide for Canadian
Expats in Mexico

• Understanding OHIP and MSP BC Coverage Abroad
• OHIP Coverage Abroad The OHIP provides health
  coverage for eligible Ontario residents, but its
  coverage is restricted when residing outside the
  province. While short trips are usually covered,
  extended stays abroad may impact your OHIP
  coverage. It's crucial to inform the Ministry of
  Health about your plans and ensure you maintain
  your eligibility. MSP BC Coverage
  Abroad Similarly, MSP BC provides health
  coverage for British Columbia residents. Like
  OHIP, coverage may be affected if you're outside
  the province for an extended period. Maintaining
  residency in BC is a key factor in determining
  MSP BC coverage. It's advised to inform Health
  Insurance BC about your relocation plans.
• Implications of Extended Stays Abroad Extended
  stays outside Canada can lead to the loss of
  continuous coverage under provincial health
  plans. This may result in the need for private
  health insurance to cover healthcare expenses
  while abroad. Understanding the limitations of
  OHIP and MSP BC is crucial to avoid unexpected
  healthcare costs.
