Health Insurance,
thoughtfully arranged
Supplemental health, dental, critical illness, disability, and long-term care coverage for individuals and families across Ontario. Independent advice from a 25-year veteran broker.
Health coverage protects more than your body. It protects your peace of mind.
What is health insurance?
Health insurance in Canada extends beyond what provincial plans like OHIP provide. While OHIP covers hospital stays and physician visits, it does not pay for prescription drugs outside of hospitals, dental care, vision care, physiotherapy, or many other common health expenses. Supplemental health insurance fills these gaps.
For self-employed professionals, contract workers, retirees, and those between jobs, individual health insurance provides essential coverage that employed Canadians often receive through group benefits. Beyond basic health and dental, this category includes critical illness insurance, disability insurance, long-term care insurance, and tax-advantaged Health Spending Accounts.
As an independent broker serving Toronto, the GTA, and Ontario for over 25 years, Michael Mlotek helps clients understand their options across multiple carriers. Whether you need comprehensive coverage or targeted protection for specific risks, Michael provides considered guidance without the pressure of a single-company sales agenda.

Frequently asked
Individual health insurance typically covers expenses not paid by OHIP: prescription drugs, dental care, vision care, paramedical services (massage, physiotherapy, chiropractic), hospital upgrades, and medical equipment. Coverage varies by plan — Michael helps you find one that matches your health needs.
Critical illness insurance pays a one-time lump sum upon diagnosis of a covered condition (cancer, heart attack, stroke, and 20+ others), regardless of whether you can work. Disability insurance replaces a portion of your income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury. Many people carry both for comprehensive protection.
Yes, though coverage may be modified. Some plans are guaranteed issue with no medical questions. Others may exclude specific conditions or apply waiting periods. Michael reviews your health history to find appropriate options.
An HSA is a CRA-approved benefit that allows incorporated businesses to pay for health expenses with pre-tax dollars. The business claims the expense as a tax deduction, and the employee or owner receives the benefit tax-free. It is especially valuable for self-employed professionals and small business owners.
Your ability to earn income is your most valuable asset. Disability insurance protects that income if illness or injury prevents you from working. Even with employer coverage, individual policies often provide better definitions of disability and longer benefit periods.
The ideal time to apply is typically between ages 50-65, when premiums are more affordable and health is generally good. Applying too late may result in declined coverage or exclusions. Michael helps assess whether LTC insurance fits your planning needs.
