extended health care plan...
 

Im laid off i dont have my extended health plan anymore, do other companies provide this if im not working?? And how much would i pay monthly?

Give GreatWestLife, Manulife, Pacific Blue Cross a call.. They all offer individual coverage..

the plan I was looking at from blue cross was $48/mth for health benefits, plus a prescription card and dental.

I think the blue cross sheet I got was only $11/ m or something for medical...

but after looking at it. extended doesn't cover much. prescription drugs, theropy stuff, and abulance service was about it.

everything else seems to covered under MSP. So at this point I haven't bothered getting extented. and will wait for another job.

The Dental is all i've ever really used for extended benefits. They only really come into play when something goes really wrong, or you like your monthly massages :p

Off topic but when you all turned 19, did you sign up for your own Medical Service Plan (MSP) or did you continue it with your parents? Any benefits with having MSP by yourself?
