What should I do if I need to go the doctor or hospital, but haven received an iMED card?
(Back to top) In a medical emergency, the priority is to get medical treatment as quickly as possible. In this case you would be billed for the medical service. As soon as you are able to, notify DCIS or an international student advisor that you have received medical treatment and need your iMED insurance documents to make a claim. If it is not an emergency, first check whether you are covered by iMED by going to the online student service centre (SSC) and looking for IMED or IMD1 in your statement of fees. If you do not see either fee code in your statement of fees, contact an international student advisor to confirm that you are eligible for iMED coverage. If you see one of these fee codes in your statement of fees, contact DCIS to request your iMED card and to confirm that DCIS has your correct email address.
