Get our best drug coverage, dental coverage and more with FollowMe^ᵀᴹ Premiere Plan

If your claim form is complete and accurate, you will generally receive payment within six business days. When information is missing, we may have to return the claim form to you. This delays processing and payment.

First, check to see if your provider has already submitted your claim. Often, you don't have to submit a claim because many hospitals, pharmacies and dentists can submit your claim directly to us. There's no online form or paperwork for you, and you only pay the amount your plan doesn't cover.

If your provider hasn't already submitted your claim, you can submit your claim online or on paper by mail.

Submit your claim online:

• Within 12 months of the date you were charged
• After you've paid more than any deductible in your plan
• Specify the currency if your claim is for services outside Canada
• Hold onto original receipts and applicable supporting documentation for 12 months

Submit your claim on paper by mail:

• Within 12 months of the date you were charged

• Extended health claim form – for all covered expenses except dental expenses
