Coordination of Benefits

If you are an eligible student on the Student Benefits Plan and are covered by another benefits plan under your parents, spouse, government, job, or band, you can make these plans work together to obtain up to 100% of coverage.

There are two scenarios where coordination of benefits comes into effect. In each case, one plan pays first (the primary payor), and one plan pays second (the secondary payer).

Scenario 1: You are covered under a parent's or spouse's plan as a dependent. The primary payor is the Student Benefits Plan and the second payor is the other benefits plan.
Scenario 2: You are covered under your employer, government or band's benefits plan. The primary payor is the one you have had the longest.

Send your claim to the first plan on the list (primary payor). After your claim has been processed, if there are any unpaid amounts, submit a claim to the next plan on the list (secondary).

How to identify your primary insurance

If a student is eligible for the Student Health and Dental plan and the student is covered by another plan under a parent's or spouse's as a dependent, the primary insurance is the Student Health and Dental Plan.

Example:

Students who have Health or Dental coverage through their school: these plans will always pay before any plan where the student is covered as a dependent.

The Student Health and Dental plan pays first.

If a student is eligible for the Student Health and Dental plan and the student is covered by another plan under job, government, or band the primary insurance is the one you have had the longest.

Example:

Students who have Health and Dental coverage through their employer: the student needs to confirm the effective date of all insurances to determine which plan has been in effect the longest.

The plan you have had the longest pays first.

Submitting Claims

After you have identified which is your primary and secondary insurance, submit the claim to your primary insurance first. Once you receive the Explanation of Benefits, you can then submit the remaining unpaid portion to your secondary insurance.

Examples:

Student Health and Dental Plan as Primary Insurance.

Submit the claim to your student plan (Personal eProfile™). Once processed, submit any portion that remains unpaid to your secondary insurance plan.

Student Health and Dental Plan as Secondary Insurance.

If you have an alternative insurance plan that you are also the primary holder of, and that has been in effect longer than your student plan, all eligible claims will be submitted to your alternative plan first. Once the claim is processed, submit any portion that remains unpaid to your student plan.

Submitting Claims for Your Spouse (if applicable).

Submit the claim to your spouse's primary plan first. Next, any unpaid portion can be submitted to your student plan.

Submitting Claims for a Dependent Child (if applicable).

Submit the claim to the parent's plan whose birthday falls first in the year (this is their primary benefit plan). Next, any unpaid portion can be submitted to the parent’s plan whose birthday falls second in the year.

Important notes:

Take a copy of your original receipt before you send it to your primary plan as you will need to send a copy to the secondary plan.
Include a copy of the Explanation of Benefits statement received from the first claim submission (primary plan), as well as a photocopy of the originally submitted receipt when you submit to your secondary plan.

I am losing my Student Benefits Plan: I am graduating or leaving school and want information on purchasing personal insurance.
