ICBC Autoplan and Claims
Since 1974, the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) has been the province’s sole provider of Basic Autoplan coverage. Basic insurance provides the minimum amount of insurance coverage you need to legally operate your vehicle, providing you with $200,000 Third Party Liability coverage and, in the event of an accident, covers injury-related medical expenses – no matter who is at fault. You can purchase optional coverage for your automobile through ICBC or from several different private carriers. You can increase your Third Party Liability coverage to $5,000,000, and add Collision and Comprehensive protection to suit your needs.
