Enhanced Healthcare for Individuals Age 50-plus – PlanDirect
You may have noticed that cutbacks to provincial healthcare coverage over the years have left you with more to pay out of your own pocket for everyday medical expenses.
PlanDirect can help fill the gap between your provincial plan coverage and what you pay. PlanDirect offers health and dental benefit plans designed for individuals age 50 and up, providing quality coverage for people with different needs and lifestyles.
You don’t need a medical exam to qualify for PlanDirect. People with pre-existing medical conditions may apply for coverage*.
And unlike many health insurance plans, there is no overall lifetime maximum on the payments you can receive.
With PlanDirect, you're covered if you move to another province in Canada, as long as you continue to qualify for provincial health insurance.
You can apply if you are 50 to 70 years old, or 50 to 75 years old if you have had supplementary health insurance coverage in the last 60 days.
And, if you are age 50 to age 75 and are retiring from or leaving a job through which you had a Great-West Life group benefits plan, you may qualify to be automatically accepted for coverage at our guaranteed acceptance rates, without providing medical evidence.
From basic coverage to the maximum protection available, our plan selections, optional benefits and valuable PlanDirect services will make it easy for you to prepare for your healthcare needs.
You can choose from 5 plan designs. Each has varying levels of coverage depending on your needs.
Add up to four optional benefits to your plan, including coverage for emergency travel medical, cash benefits while you’re in the hospital, major dental coverage and accidental death and dismemberment benefits.
PlanDirect includes valuable features to help you get the most out of your coverage.
Learn what your premiums will be, and whether they could be tax deductible.
