BMO INSURANCE LAUNCHES NEW HEALTH AND DENTAL INSURANCE COVERAGE AND CARE PLAN FOR CANADIANS, POWERED BY GREENSHIELD
Bank of Montreal's BMO Insurance today launched BMO Health and Dental Insurance, a new offering distributed by BMO Insurance Solutions Inc. (BMOIS) and powered by GreenShield, Canada's only national non-profit health care and insurance organization.
- Designed for simplicity -- with clear plan options, a streamlined digital application and transparent eligibility criteria;
-
Comprehensive value included -- featuring access to virtual care, personalized counselling, travel coverage and an integrated digital benefits app;
-
Convenient digital access -- available through the BMO Insurance Solutions Store, where Canadians can explore options, get a quote and apply on-line.
BMO's collaboration with GreenShield puts integrated coverage and care at the forefront. By combining BMO Insurance's national reach and client-focused solutions with GreenShield's expertise in digital health services, the partnership delivers simpler, more accessible insurance and a smoother connection to care for Canadians.
"This launch reflects our continued commitment to meeting Canadians where they are, with insurance solutions that are practical, transparent and easy to navigate," said Rohit Thomas, president and chief executive officer, BMO Insurance. "By simplifying plan options and the application experience, we are helping clients make confident decisions about their health and dental coverage."
"Too many Canadians still find accessing health coverage and care complicated, fragmented or out of reach," said J.P. Girard, executive vice-president, head of insurance, at GreenShield. "This collaboration with BMO Insurance is about removing that friction, making coverage easier to understand and access, and easily connecting people to supports like virtual care and counselling. Together, we're helping more Canadians navigate their options with confidence and get the care they need, in one place."
