How do I know how much I am covered for?
You can find out the details of your coverage by contacting your extended health carrier. This can be done either online or over the phone. Your employer may also be able to provide you with this information. Because of the confidential nature of your coverage, we do not have access to any information pertaining to your specific coverage or limits.
What is a deductible?
A deductible is an “activation fee” that must be met at the beginning of your plan’s fiscal year. This amount is set by your insurance provider, and must be paid before your benefits kick in. For inquiries regarding your deductible, please contact your carrier.
