Drug coverage over the age of 65

Posted by Human Resources on March 23, 2015

Did you know…
 
·   If you and/or your spouse are members of the Dalhousie Medical Plan and are over the age of 65 with an active position (FTE status of 50% or greater), you will maintain drug coverage.
 
·   Members who are over the age of 65 must call the Nova Scotia Seniors’ Pharmacare Program at 1-800-544-6191 to let them know that they will have drug coverage under the Dalhousie Medical Plan.
 
·   Should an employee retire or leave Dalhousie after the age of 65, to avoid a late entry penalty, employees must apply for coverage with Pharmacare within 90 days of the date your coverage under the Dalhousie Medical Plan ends.
