For Personal members: Our Personal Health Plans include coverage for diagnosis or treatment by the following health practitioners:
When a profession is regulated in a specific province/territory, we will confirm that the health practitioner is listed in good standing with the regulatory body that governs that profession. However, not all healthcare professions are regulated in every province/territory in Canada. As a result, some healthcare professions have developed associations which have varying membership requirements. Such associations are evaluated against established criteria to determine if their members will be approved providers with Saskatchewan Blue Cross.
We recommend you contact our Member Experience team to ensure expenses for services or supplies from a specific health practitioner are eligible for coverage before the expenses are incurred.
For Group plan members: Please refer to your group member portal, mobile app or employee benefits booklet for details on what your plan covers.
You may choose pre-authorized monthly debit from a bank account or pay annually using your credit card.
For Blue Choice® plans: Your coverage begins on the first day of the month following the approval of your application and the receipt of your payment.
For Conversion plans: Apply within 60 days of leaving an Employer Benefits Plan and experience no interruption in coverage.
When you are covered under more than one health plan, you can enjoy the benefits of both. Submit your claim under one plan, and then submit the remainder of that claim (for example, the remaining 20% of a claim that is covered up to 80%) to the other plan. Learn more here.
If you have signed up for direct deposit, eligible reimbursement will be direct deposited into your bank account and the funds should appear in your bank account within 1-3 business days from time of processing.
If you haven’t signed up for direct deposit, you’ll receive a cheque in the mail. To get your money back faster, sign up for direct deposit.
Claims adjudication (i.e. whether a benefit is paid, declined, or limits applied) is based on the provisions in your Personal Health Plan Policy.

Pharmacies and Dentists can direct bill Saskatchewan Blue Cross in real-time using an electronic submission method.
For all other claims, your wait time will depend on the type of claim, how it was submitted, and our current claims volume. Our standard turnaround time is 3-5 business days from time of receipt.

The Special Support Program (SSP) is designed to help those whose drug costs are high in relation to their income.

This program is family-based and everyone is eligible to apply for this coverage.
Personal Health Plans are annual plans; as such, payment must be made either annually by cheque or credit card, or monthly by automatic withdrawal.
As a not-for-profit organization, we take great care in ensuring that our Personal Health Plans continue to be among the most affordable and sustainable in Saskatchewan. The rates you pay go towards claims, service and administration costs – not profit margins.
Annually, Personal Health Plans undergo a rate review to adjust for factors including general inflation, the cost of health care and paramedical services for all Saskatchewan members on our Personal Plans, and enhancements to the benefits and service options offered to you.
Personal Health Plan pricing is also aligned to 10-year age increments, providing greater stability in your plan pricing over time. Rate adjustments occur when you enter a new age group, and can be a contributing factor in your renewal rate. Our rates are determined by the following age brackets: Under 35 | 35-44 | 45-54 | 55-64 | 65-74 | 75-84 | 85+
