Best to check with your doctor about OHIP coverage. If you are currently a Canadian resident my guess would be yes or maybe some of it?....but best check; otherwise you pay!
It has been well over 10 years since I had my first medical for the first Middle East job and memory fails.....I know the second job I took I had to pay for the medical as I wasn't clasified as a Canadian resident.
Be prepared to have more tests done once you are in KSA. |

| Most, but not all, employers pay medical expenses for the visa (I always though it was a Saudi government requirement). |

Regarding some Saudi Institutions: 'how they talk about doing things' and 'how they actually do things' are often very different. |
