Have questions about the new optional benefits plan? Here are some frequently asked questions that may help!

Can I change my coverage later?
🔄 Thinking of changing your coverage? You can update your plan between Silver and Gold or vice versa on Jan 1st of every year or if you experience a life change, such as marriage or the birth of a child. Our goal is to keep your benefits relevant and suited to your needs. Stay flexible and informed—your health journey is unique!

What If I Have Existing Coverage?
🔍 No problem! Our group benefits program can complement your current plan. We encourage you to review your existing benefits and see how our offerings can enhance your overall coverage. For personalized advice, feel free to contact Tonya Jegen at 250 869 3929 or [email protected]—we’re here to help you navigate your options!

How can I file a claim?
📑 Filing a claim is easy! For any claims that cannot be billed direct to the carrier, the user-friendly online system allows you to submit claims in just a few clicks. No more paperwork hassle! For detailed guidance on the claim process, check out the video on our website or contact the support team. We’re here to ensure you receive your benefits smoothly and efficiently!

How does dental coverage work?
🦷 Want to know about dental coverage? Our plan includes preventive services like cleanings and exams, basic services such as fillings, and major services including crowns, bridges and dentures (included on the Gold Plan). Taking care of your teeth is just as important as caring for your horse! Keep that smile bright and healthy—learn more on our website
