† Prescription drug coverage applies to costs not covered by your provincial prescription drug insurance plan, up to the maximums stated above.

†† Prescription drug coverage is based on Calendar Year for residents of British Columbia and Saskatchewan. For all other provinces, coverage is based on Anniversary Year.

*Generic Drug – A generally less expensive alternative to an interchangeable brand-name drug product. Please note: Not all drugs have a generic equivalent. If a non-generic drug cost is purchased, payment will be based on the lowest generic drug cost equivalent, if applicable. If no generic brand exists, payment of the brand-name price will be made at the co-payment level of your plan.

**Benefits are only payable after yearly maximums allowed under your provincial health insurance plan have been reached, if applicable.
