Desjardins Financial has launched a new healthcare platform. The Health is Cool 360º platform will give eligible group insurance plan members 24/7 access to the information on treatment options for specific illnesses, services available in their areas, healthcare system wait times as well as other health-related tools.
It is hoped that with this innovative tool, plan members will become more proactive about their health
“A tool like the Health is Cool 360º platform makes it easier to take a preventive approach to your healthcare. It also helps employers manage the costs associated with health problems and absenteeism,” explains Nathalie Laporte, director of product development and marketing, group and business insurance, with Desjardins Financial Security.
“With our innovative online and telephone assistance solutions, Canadians can navigate the healthcare system with greater ease and find the health information they need in one place,” says Marc Giguère, vice-president of Novus Health business development. “Members of group insurance plans that include this service will appreciate their coverage even more.”
