This coverage does not apply to any other Covid-19 related restrictions or a positive Covid-19 test without acute symptoms.

Maintenance drugs are prescribed on an ongoing basis to treat chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
The price of drugs can vary greatly from one pharmacy to another. Comparing prices can be a beneficial exercise that could save you money.
Maintenance drugs can be provided for a longer period (up to 100 days), saving you money on dispensing fees and reducing the number of pharmacy visits.

You can find the list of drugs requiring prior authorization on the website of our partner TELUS: https://www.telus.com/en/health/prior-authorization-forms.
The carrier number is 34. Your group number can be located on your benefits card.
