6 Things You Didn’t Know About Group Benefits

Here is a list of items you may not have known that are included with every Group Benefit plan.

Travel Insurance

With everything happening right now related to Covid-19 not many people are traveling. When you are ready to again Group Benefit plans will have you covered.

We’ve all heard the horror stories of a family traveling abroad for a vacation only for a trip to the emergency room to cost them their surfing lessons budget and then some.

Well fear not, emergency travel insurance is included with every Group Plan, so you and your family can be rest assured that no trip to the emergency room will jeopardize the thrilling excitement you feel when you hit your first wave.

Trip Duration

There is a limit to the coverage and that limit is a 60 consecutive day trip duration. Meaning you can return on day 60 back to Canada and leave for another 60-day trip on day 61 and be covered.

Unlimited Drug Coverage

With unlimited drug coverage does not come unlimited responsibility. When you have an unlimited drug plan as part of your Group Benefit plan you can be rest assured that if drug claims become too high you will not be subjected to a large increase on renewal. This is because drug claims over $10,000 are pooled.

When claims are pooled they are spread over a large pool of groups in the insurance company which alleviates the high cost of drug claims for one individual group.
