The following is our current position related to covering employers with Group Benefits for the production and wholesale of Cannabis for Medical purposes:
- We will consider employers who manufacture and wholesale so long as they are registered with the Government of Canada. This is limited to licensed producers who are authorized to sell to registered persons/clients who wish to access cannabis for medical purposes.
- They must comply with our standard general UW Guidelines (in business minimum one year, minimum 25% employer premium contribution, employer/employee relationship, etc..)
- We are not making exceptions for small start-up dispensaries; they will continue to be considered ineligible.
