My claim/prescription was denied what do I do?

Health and Dental Claims:

There are a few reasons why your Health or Dental claim may have been denied.
  • Your claim could be missing relevant information needed for Greenshield
    to properly adjudicate your claim. For example, you must include a copy of
    your prescription for all vision claims. If this is the case please contact
    the Greenshield Customer Care Centre at 1- 888-711-1119 for
    more information.

  • Terminated coverage. If you were suspended from UBCP as of June 1st of
    any year you are not eligible for coverage for that benefit year. Your
    coverage will also be terminated if you do not qualify for a class eligible
    for Health and Dental coverage. Information regarding your class level is
    mailed out to members each year in May.

  • The prescription you claimed was not an eligible benefit under the
    BC Formulary. In this case you may want to speak with your Doctor about
    an alternative that is covered under the BC Formulary or have your
    Doctor submit a Special Authority Request to Pharmacare to have the
    drug covered for you. If your Doctor submits a Special Authority Form a
    copy of the approval must be forwarded to the MBT office to be sent to
    Greenshield to be added to your file.

  • You have not registered for Fair Pharmacare and/or contacted Green Shield
    with your registration number. If this is the case please register for
    Fair Pharmacare by logging on to www.gov.bc.ca/health. Once registered
    please contact Green Shield with your Registration number.

Short Term and Long Term Disability Claims:

In the event that your STD/LTD claim has been denied please contact your Great
West Life Case Manager to determine the reason. If this does not answer your
question please contact the MBT office.

What is a T-3?

The T-3 that you receive represents the premiums that were paid on your behalf
to the insurance companies to provide you with coverage.
