Are pre-existing conditions covered under the international student medical plan 🔹 Will my existing health issues be covered by student insurance 🔹 What if I already have a medical condition before coming to Acadia

Coverage for pre-existing medical conditions may be limited under Acadia’s International Student Medical Plan. Here’s what you need to know:

• 🩺 The plan covers emergency and urgent medical care while you're in Canada

• ⚠️ If you have a pre-existing condition, it might not be fully covered — especially if treatment began before your coverage started

• 📄 You can submit a pre-determination form to check if a specific service or treatment is eligible

• 📱 Download the My Peak mobile app to view your coverage details and access your benefit card

To get help understanding your coverage or submitting a form, contact the ASU Supports Office or visitStudentVIP’s international medical plan page.
