Pensioner's Benefits Bulletin

Due to Public Sector Restraint Act 2010, Benefit plan maxima, deductibles and out-of-pocket limits have not changed since 2010. The 2010 Retiree Benefits Bulletins are the most current version.

For those in the current health plan (pensioners retired after June 6, 2000)
For those in the grandparented health plan (pensioners retired between Jan1, 1996 to June 5, 2000. This plan has a pay-direct drug card)
For those in the old health plan (pensioners retired prior to January 1, 1996. This plan does not have a pay-direct drug card. All claims including drugs must be mailed to our insurer, Great-West Life)

Questions about plan coverage or claim assessments should be directed to Great-West Life at 1-800-957-9777.

Changes to marital status, spousal coordination of benefits or registration of dependent student status should be directed to Diana Rau at dbrau@uwaterloo.ca or extension 32078.
