Kids Plus Accident Insurance
Kids Plus™
Accident Insurance
For your convenience, we have made arrangements for families to voluntarily purchase student accident insurance through the Kids Plus™ Accident Insurance program, underwritten by Industrial Alliance Insurance and Financial Services Inc.
Kids Plus™ Accident Insurance offers protection against the unexpected costs of injury from accidents, and is
especially valuable for families who:
· do not have medical or dent al plans,
· have limited plans, as it may help supplement health and dental benefits, or
· Have active children who enjoy sports and outdoor activities.
For complete plan details, please visit kidsplus.ca.
2018-2019 The Kids Plus™ Accident Insurance school distribution program has moved online!
All schools
can
now access kidsplus.ca/resources for information about Kids Plus™
which they can use on their respective websites, e-newsletters and social media. The main website at kidsplus.ca will continue to be available for parents to purchase coverage,
access
claims forms and full
plan information online.
Additionally,
for 2018 Kids Plus™ decided to take their mission to be green one step further by
discontinuing
distribution of
all
Kids Plus™ Notices (Brochures)
to reduce the overall
paper use.
Please
note that effective this
September 1st, there will
also be some changes to the Kids Plus™ Accident
Insurance policy that will
impact the Active Plan holders.
Permanent Total
Disability coverage will be
reduced from $360,000 to $100,000 and Dismemberment or Total & Permanent Loss of
Use
from
$200,000 to $100,000. These changes were made in order
to allow Kids
Plus™ to continue to offer the
benefits families use most, such as
dental treatment and eyewear, with no increase in premiums.
If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our
new
promotional
landing page, our Kids Plus™ Client Service Specialists would be happy to assist you.
You may contact Kids
Plus™ at their Client Service toll-free line at 1-800-556-7411 or
email kidsplus@ia.ca.
Walking or Cycling to School
Walking or Cycling to School
As we start the 2018-2019 school year, we would like to remind and encourage families to consider walking or cycling with children to and from school. There are many benefits to walking and cycling to school. It:
- Improves student academic performance by making children more alert and better prepared to learn.
- Contributes to the daily goal of 60 minutes of moderate or vigorous activity for children, improving their health and overall fitness.
- Reduces traffic congestion and improves safety for everyone in school zones.
- Promotes life-long habits that foster independence and active lifestyles, preparing children for their future.
For those who can’t walk or cycle to school every day, choosing active travel once, twice or a few days a week can still provide benefits. You can also consider parking a block away from the school and walking the rest of the way. Include active travel as part of your daily routine!
