A Formula for Disaster
 
Content:
Insurers design protection against catastophic drug claims! On April 3, 2012, The Canadian life and health insurance industry announced an industry-wide drug pooling agreement to help mitigate the impact of high drug costs on fully insured employer drug plans.  This is a positive step for the industry and great news for employers who have a fully insured plan as it allows them to sustain the group drug benefit program in the event that one or more employees has a recurring, very high cost prescription drug claim.
