Exciting news for you and your CI clients

Introducing…Virtual Healthcare by Maple!

Starting in October 2021, persons insured under CI policies will have access to Virtual Healthcare by Maple, our new CI added-benefit provider. With Maple, persons insured under CI policies will have access to covered online general practitioner visits and an expert medical opinion service which will replace Advance Medical by Teladoc*. As both the Advance Medical by Teledoc and Virtual Healthcare by Maple benefits are non-contractual, this change will not impact the terms of your clients’ existing CI policies.

*Expert Medical Opinion Service requests that have already been initiated with Teladoc Health will continue to be handled by Teladoc Health until the request is complete.
