Could you please tell me if a pregnant (sponsored) will need a private
health insurance in order to be covered in the hospital for giving
birth. Knowing that the OHIP is valid only after 3 months after being
landed in Ontario.

If yes do you know any private health insurance.

thank you

There is no private insurance company that will cover the pregnancy,
(pre-existing condition) that I know of.

If the need come before OHIP coverage start, then there is
probably no way she can be covered legally. OHIP won't cover her
and AFAIK there is no private health coverage will cover
pre-existing condition (her pregnancy is a pre-existing
condition). Therefore she have to pay the hospital cost by
herself.
