Information Meeting on Extended Health and Travel Insurance
The Emeritus College has organized a meeting to discuss extended health, dental, and travel insurance. You can attend either in person or virtually. The meeting will also be recorded and available for later viewing on the College YouTube website. Representatives from Sun Life, Johnson, RTOERO, and UBC Human Resources will each make short presentations and be available to respond to your questions concerning the insurance options available to you:
- UBC/Sun Life RSB Plan: Extended Health; Dental; EFAP
- Johnson, Inc.: MEDOC (Travel Insurance only)
- Johnson, Inc. Extended Health with Travel Insurance; Dental
- RTOERO: Extended Health with Travel Insurance; Hospitalization; Dental
This meeting will provide an update and refresher on the key features of the insurance plans and their comparative strengths and limitations.
It will be of special interest to individuals:
- whose health or personal circumstances have changed recently
- wanting to know more about the comparative advantages of the Johnson and RTO plans
- approaching age 76 (when the cost of stand-alone travel insurance increases significantly)
- who are still working and are planning for their retirement
- who are working, or are expecting to work, past age 71
