Canadian insurers starting to get a read on marijuana. With Suns’ announcement there will be others that will follow soon. One of the difficulties with a non drug identification number (DIN) drug is how to monitor it and where to place the claims. Sun appears to be considering it in their “medical equipment” section which allows them to look at a pre-approval process. This is clever, creative way to begin. There is little doubt this will evolve further and Cost Plus or HSA’s remain other ways to effectively provide coverage for now…. Sun Life adds medical marijuana coverage to group benefits plans
