Good questions.
Worth asking.
Does a high reimbursement percentage mean a full bill is covered?
No. Eligible fees, deductibles, service restrictions and remaining maximums can affect payment. Ask for an explanation using the actual proposed wording.
Can I assume my current prescriptions are eligible?
Check directly with the provider through a secure channel. Drug eligibility, limits, exclusions and underwriting differ between plans.
Is this the same as U.S. major medical insurance?
Canadian supplemental benefits and U.S. health plans are different arrangements. Use a provider authorised for your location and compare the appropriate product and eligibility rules.
