Yes. Please let us know, within 31 days, which of your employees have been temporarily laid off.

They sure can. When your employees sign up for a My GMS account on gms.ca, they can submit and view processed claims and payments, sign up for Claim Direct Deposit, and view their Explanation of Benefits, any time they need to.

We do! Our Employee Family Assistance Program (EFAP), provided by Homewood Health, is automatically included in our Group Advantage plans, and can be added to any Custom group plan as well. EFAP provides a wide range of resources, including online information, life coaching and professional counselling to help proactively manage mental and physical health.

If an employee has health or dental coverage through a spouse’s plan, they may waive that portion of the benefits plan.

Contact one of our Regional Sales Directors. They'll help you find the plan right for you and get the application process rolling.
