Yes, my brothers live out of state and have my fathers' insurance. I think it depends on the company though
2 :
yes, insurance agencies have a "travel"plan.

Usually yes, although it really depends on the type of health plan you have. Also, again depending on the type of plan you have, even if your child is on your plan, he or she might not be able to get access to doctors and hospitals that participate with your insurance plan. What I mean is that if you have a HMO (health maintenance organization) or PPO (preferred provider organization) plan, you only receive full coverage if you see someone in the HMO’s network. If your child lives in a state without network doctors or hospital, he or she might be on your plan but still wouldn’t be able to get full health benefits. It’s much easier to figure out with a traditional fee-for-service (FFS) plan of course, because your child would be able to visit most any doctor or hospital and still be covered – although most FFS plan do not cover regular doctor visits and other preventive medicine costs. So, I’d call your insurance company or a local insurance agent. MostChoice.com is an excellent way to find information about health plans in your area. You fill out a short form, and they will send you free information on health insurance plans. You’ll also get a chance to talk with state-licensed health insurance agents near you. There’s no cost or obligation, and MostChoice won’t use your information for any purpose apart from matching you with local health plans and agents. So stop by and fill out the form. Agents should call you within two days and have your questions ready. You can find it here: http://www.mostchoice.com/health-insurance.cfm Hope this helps, Barnes @ MostChoice.

yes get out of there as quick as you can also make sure not to catch cancer
2 :
This is from the CDC: "Yes, some forms of bacterial meningitis are contagious. The bacteria can mainly be spread from person to person through the exchange of respiratory and throat secretions. This can occur through coughing, kissing, and sneezing. Fortunately, none of the bacteria that cause meningitis are as contagious as things like the common cold or the flu. Also, the bacteria are not spread by casual contact or by simply breathing the air where a person with meningitis has been." Hopefully precautions are taken and it won't be a problem.

If I marry a Canadian citizen will my child benefit of health insurance

If I marry a Canadian citizen will my child benefit of health insurance.?
I am a European citizen and am engaged with a Canadian citizen. My child suffers from a heart disese that exceeds doctor's competence in my country. I want to know if I marry my fiance will my child benefit of free heath care in Canada, of free of charge investigations? Thank you very much, this is urgent!!! I wanted to add that my son is 6 years old. My son is from my previous marrage that ended in 2004. So if he doesn't get adopted by my fiance he can't benefit from health insurance? So what i am interested in is his health insurance and not citiyenship necesarily but that would be a very good question too! Thanks everybody, I appreciate your efforts!

Only if you live in Canada and pay taxes to the Canadian Government. Contrary to popular belief, universal health care is not "free". It is supported by the taxpayers. Move to Canada. Your child can take advantage of Canadian Health benefits as long he is a legaly admitted resident of Canada.
2 :
this is child your fiance's if so then he is gurantee citizen of canada therefore have rights to the health care provided by canada otherwise your fiance must adopt and make it legal that the child will be his in order to gain citizenship............
3 :
Your fiance does not have to adopt your son for him to recieve health care in Canada. You do how ever have to be legal residents of Canada for three months and then you will be covered as Canadian residents
