RxFood nutrition app added to all group benefits plans
Equitable® has added the RxFood nutrition app to all group benefits plans at no extra cost—giving every plan member more opportunity to make healthy and informed food choices.
RxFood is Canada’s first clinically validated nutrition platform that’s used and trusted by leading health care institutions across the country, such as SickKids Hospital and Diabetes Canada, to help support better health outcomes through nutrition.
Using technology powered by artificial intelligence, RxFood turns everyday meals into personalized insights, practical tips and tailored recommendations that are easy for plan members to act on and build into their routines.
For more information, read our previous eNews article.
Promoting RxFood to plan members
This week, clients will receive a digital toolkit to help them encourage plan members to register for RxFood. Plan members must register to access this free benefit.
The toolkit includes an RxFood brochure, a poster, an email template plan administrators can use to help spread the word, and the video below.
Coming soon: Coverage information at plan members’ fingertips on EquitableHealth.ca
Starting this month, Equitable plan members will be able to find helpful information about their health coverage more quickly and easily. We’re putting the key details at their fingertips on the EquitableHealth.ca® home page.
Faster access to health coverage details
Our new coverage panel will provide plan members fast access to information about their paramedical coverage for themselves and their covered dependants – including coverage maximums, reimbursement details and more.
Plan members with Health Care Spending Accounts or Taxable Spending Accounts will also be able to check their balances from the home page.
Later this spring, we’ll add information about vision and dental benefits to the coverage panel, too.
Simpler way to find benefits resources
We’re also making it easier for plan members to access key resources. Benefits cards, booklets and other important sections of the site will now be linked directly from the home page.
The video below walks plan members through the new features:
More new features to come
The coverage panel and resources section are the latest enhancements to our new plan member web experience, which we launched last fall. We’ll continue introducing more self-serve features this year.
