Important Note on Provincial Coverage
When you receive medical care outside of Saskatchewan or Canada, the coverage you get from the Canadian Health Act is limited. Because provincial payments are based on much lower domestic rates, you will be personally responsible for paying the large difference between your medical bill and the amount Saskatchewan Health reimburses.
