Diabetic patients are screwed

by Tmmmmm on Mar 17, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

Switching to Canada life I have to fill out all sorts of crap and jump through hoops galore in order to get approved.
Their staff make you look up DINS on their website (too lazy).
I have a feeling I’ll be disapproved for the new diabetes meds. Best of luck to everyone forced to deal with Canada Life.

No Issues AT ALL

I have read nothing but poor reviews of Canada Life after they took over PSHCP. I have had nothing but amazing service. Any phone call has been handled quickly and efficiently. I attended an optometrist appointment yesterday and submitted my claim... honestly fearing how long it may take. WITHIN 24hrs, I had the claim processed and funds directly back into my account. Amazing service!

2 hours on hold.

by Michael Williamson on Jan 26, 2024

Denied two claims with covered DIN's. I can't get an explanation because I've spend nearly 2.5 hours on hold over the last 2 days. I emailed from their website for support and have received nothing but a cookie cutter response stating they are behind on claims. They didn't address my concern as the claims I was referring to were already processed, just incorrectly.

Coverage denied several times

I had podiatrist surgery, by a podiatrist who has been practising for the last 30 years. Canada Life denied my claim saying he does not meet the qualifications. However, they covered my initial assessment. After calling several times and giving them the registration number they still denied it.

Worst customer service

by PB on Dec 12, 2023

This company took over the PSHCP program for Government of Canada employees. It was impossible to speak with an agent for the first two months of transition. They failed to communicate key policy points that meant my significant other will lose name brand drug coverage. Unacceptable.

Sick of waiting on the phone

Every time you phone them you sit on hold for an hour minimum. Then if you’re lucky enough for someone to answer they don’t know anything. They say they will look into it and never do.

Worse insurance company in this country!

by Toni on Oct 31, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

Canada life is definitely the worst insurance company in existence. Their so called customer service is ridiculous. None of the “agents” care. You submit a claim and wait months to be reimbursed. They stall on purpose, they don’t want to pay any claims. Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this horrible company. My ex husband’s insurance company reimburses their claims in 24 hours or less. Canada life is a joke. Months to get your money and even when it’s the “leftover” amount. Unprofessional and brutal! I wish my employer would make the switch !!!!!!

Life saving cancer drug needs pre authorization

by Madeleine Diflumeri on Oct 26, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

I was diagnosed with a cancer that came back. They cannot cure it but it can be treated. The form for pre authorization was sent 3 weeks ago both by the oncology department and Phizer. Both have confirmed that they have had only problems with this company. Today I paid 6200$ for my medication on my credit card. I can’t keep this up. I’m so discouraged.

6 Month Approval

by Jk on Oct 26, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

We are planning on going to Florida for 6 months and tried to get approval for 6 months supply of medication, 23 days later and 6 phone calls and a promise that a supervisor would rush my request I am still waiting for approval, before they approved on the spot, seems like they just want people to get so frustrated that they pay for there own prescriptions, get rid of them, worst customer service I have ever experienced
