Announcing Equitable Life's National Biosimilar Program
Beginning March 1, 2024, we are expanding our biosimilar switch program nationally** to protect all our clients and to make our coverage consistent across Canada.
Our national biosimilar initiative will simplify drug plan coverage, replacing our provincial programs with one program across the country.
Why now?
Over the past few years, most provinces have introduced policies to delist some originator biologic drugs. They require most patients to switch to biosimilar versions of those drugs to be eligible for coverage under their public drug plans. Soon, it is expected that all provincial drug plans will cover only biosimilars.
In response, we have implemented biosimilar switch initiatives in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to align with these provincial changes. Our initiatives are designed to protect our clients from additional drug costs that may result from these government policies while providing access to equally safe and effective lower cost biosimilars.
How will this affect clients’ drug plans?
Because we have already introduced biosimilar switch initiatives in most provinces, the impact of this change will be minimal. It will primarily affect plan members in provinces or territories where we haven’t already required the switch to biosimilars, and plan members who are taking biosimilars that were not originally included in the switch initiative for their province.
Regardless of where they live, plan members across Canada will no longer be eligible for most originator biologic drugs if they have a condition for which Health Canada has approved a lower cost biosimilar version of the drug. Plan members already taking the originator biologic will be required to switch to a biosimilar version of the drug to maintain coverage under their Equitable plan. We will support their transition with education, personalized communication, and resources.
Will this change affect clients' rates?
Any cost savings associated with the change will be factored in at renewal.
Biologics are drugs that are engineered using living organisms like yeast and bacteria. The first version of a biologic developed is known as the “originator” biologic. Biosimilars are highly similar to the drugs they are based on, and Health Canada considers them to be equally safe and effective for approved conditions.
What is the difference between biologics and biosimilars?
Advance notice
We will be communicating with affected claimants in early December to allow them ample time to change their prescription and avoid any interruptions in their treatment or their coverage.
If you have any questions about this change, please contact your Group Account Executive or myFlex Account Executive.
**Excludes plan members in Quebec who participate in a separate provincial program. -

Investing during market highs and market lows can leave even the most seasoned investors scratching their heads. Knowing when to buy and when to sell is not easy, but disciplined investing can be.
Dollar cost averaging with Equitable Life® is designed to provide a long-term investment solution. This strategy helps take the guesswork out of knowing when to get into the market. It can also provide consistency for a long-term financial plan regardless of whether there is a lot or a little to invest.
And for a limited time only, we’ve increased the initial commission for the CB5 sales option from 5.6% to 7.0% on Pivotal Select™ segregated funds*, effective from May 20 to August 31, 2022.** During this time, advisors earn the increased full initial commission even if funds are placed into Equitable Life Money Market Fund to start the PAC.
For more information on dollar cost averaging, please contact your Equitable Life Regional Investment Sales Manager.
* Applies to FundSERV trades occurring between May 20 and August 31, 2022. Initial commission on non-FundSERV trades occurring between May 20 to August 31, 2022 increases from 4% to 5%. Initial commission is subject to a chargeback.
