Ontario Blue Cross supports its clients by offering a reduction in Health Insurance Premiums
TORONTO, April 27, 2020 /CNW/ - In an additional effort to support its clients during the pandemic, Ontario Blue Cross announces that it will offer a reduction in individual health insurance premiums for dental and health care benefits. The reduction corresponds to 50% of the cost of dental care and 20% of the cost of the extended health care insurance benefit and will automatically apply to its clients' accounts for three months, starting May 1.
"The situation we're in is exceptional, but it doesn't change our commitment to continually support the people who trust us. Our individual health insurance clients are mainly entrepreneurs, self-employed workers, small business owners and employees who do not have access to group insurance, as well as retirees and members of associations. We are therefore taking exceptional measures to reduce their financial burden in this time of crisis," said Sylvain Charbonneau, President and CEO of Ontario Blue Cross.
Greater flexibility thanks to virtual consultations with some health professionals
This targeted reduction in premiums is in addition to various measures aimed at making life easier and encouraging the wellness of Ontario Blue Cross insureds, whose coverage now includes access to virtual consultations with a variety of healthcare professionals, including dietitians or nutritionists, speech therapists and psychologists, depending on the services included in each contract.
