How does the coordination of health and dental expenses work between the Alberta Seniors Program and the Supplementary Health and Dental plans?
Like other government programs such as Alberta Health Care the Alberta Senior Program is the first payer of any health or dental expense. When you become a participant of the Alberta Senior’s program you will receive an Alberta Blue Cross card to use when you are accessing health and dental services. Your provider will bill directly to the Seniors Program for the costs for services received subject to the limitations under the Alberta Seniors program. Any amounts not paid by the Alberta Seniors Program will be considered for reimbursement under the university plans. The University plans will pay any remaining amounts up to our plan maximums and subject to limitations. To process a claim you are required to pay for any costs in excess of the Seniors Program, then submit your expense to Sun Life for reimbursement. Sun Life health and dental claim forms are available in the forms cabinet.
