Our Services

One eye examination, by an ophthalmologist or optometrist, registered and legally practicing within the scope of his or her license is covered. No amount will be paid for contact lens fitting fee.

Charges for dental services by a licensed dentist for the repair of sound natural teeth (healthy, non-diseased and not heavily restored) are covered when required for a non-occupational accidental injury, external to the mouth, which occurs while the person is covered. No amount will be payable for injury caused by an object placed in or on the mouth, self-inflicted or to existing dentures, crowns, or bridgework.

Benefits shall be paid in accordance with the Ontario Dental Fee Guide for General Practitioners, in effect at the time of treatment. Treatment must commence within 90 days following the date of the accident, and the care or services must be completed within one year from such date. No amount shall be payable for charges incurred after the termination date, or after the person’s coverage terminates.

When submitting a claim for Accidental Dental, you are required to submit a letter detailing when and how the accident happened. The attending dentist must confirm that the treatment is the result of an accident. It is recommended that the dentist submit a predetermination outlining the course of treatment and the resulting cost.

Eligible Accidental Dental claims must first be submitted to the Health Care Plan. Once this benefit is exhausted, remaining expenses can then be considered under the Dental Care Plan.

Coverage is limited to the cost of the lowest priced equivalent item in the applicable generic category that can be legally used to fill your prescription. Our plan covers up to a 34-day supply of therapeutic (acute) drugs, and up to a 100-day supply for maintenance drugs unless prior approval is obtained from The Campus Trust.

Our Plan covers a list of prescription drugs, professionally compiled to address the needs of students. The “Student Managed Drug Formulary” is designed to help reduce the cost of the Plan while maintaining comprehensive quality care and benefits.

Eligible drugs including those within the following general categories: (1) eligible drugs which by law require a prescription for purchase; (2) compound mixtures where one of the ingredients is an eligible item.

It should be noted that drugs are only considered eligible if they were prescribed by a licensed doctor (M.D.) or licensed dentist, or another professional, authorized by provincial legislation to prescribe drugs, and dispensed by a registered pharmacist or licensed doctor (M.D.).

The only drugs not legally requiring a prescription which will be reimbursed if accompanied by an official prescription receipt from the pharmacist are: vaccines/serums (only if course requirement, authorization by school required); insulin; diabetic supplies: insulin syringes and needles;

If you become disabled while covered and are confined at home or in a hospital for a minimum of 15 consecutive school days, you are eligible for the private tutorial services by a qualified teacher, up to the Benefit Maximum. The teacher must be approved, in advance, by the Students’ Council. Disabilities due to the same or related cause will be treated as one disability. If the disability is the result of an accident, confinement must occur no later than 100 days after the accident. Disabled means that you cannot, because of illness or injury, engage in most of the normal activities a person of the same age or sex.

Lenses and frames or contact lenses, when prescribed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist, are covered. Laser eye surgery; in lieu of lenses and frames, will also be covered, up to the Benefit Maximum.
