  1. SMS is Available for Individual Insurance Application Updates If you haven’t opted in to receive your client's application status via text message, give it a try on your next application. 

    When you submit a client’s application, you can opt-in to receive text message updates for your new business applications. No need to log in to your advisor portal to know exactly what is going on with a case.
     
    Once you opt-in to receive text messages, you will receive short text updates for your new business applications. That’s a text message when:
    • The application is received,
    • Equitable Life has made a decision,
    • The policy is ready for delivery, and
    • The commissions have been triggered.
    Please note, this number is not monitored for incoming texts. Please contact Customer Service with any questions.

    In addition to these messages, Equitable Life will continue to send proactive emails detailing outstanding requirements.

    Be sure to opt-in to text messages when you complete your next application on EZComplete®.

     

    We’ve recently made a number of changes to make doing business with us easy. Learn more about SMS and other ways we are making it easy to do business with us.

  2. An important announcement about our Travel Assist provider Allianz Global Assistance, our Travel Assist emergency medical assistance provider, has informed us that it is exiting the Canadian group travel insurance market.
     
    Allianz will continue to accept and support new claims up to June 30, 2023, and they will support ongoing claims until Dec. 31, 2023.
     
    We are already meeting with potential new Travel Assist partners and plan to have a provider in place before June 30, 2023.
     
    In the meantime, we are working closely with Allianz to help ensure a smooth and seamless transition for your clients and their plan members. Allianz is committed to maintaining its staff to meet and exceed service levels throughout the transition, as follows:
     
    Before July 1, 2023:
    Allianz will continue to accept calls and open new claims up to June 30, 2023. Any claims opened on or prior to June 30, 2023, will continue to be processed by Allianz until Dec. 31, 2023.
     
    After July 1, 2023:
    New cases will be directed to our new service provider. Allianz will work alongside us and our new provider to make this transition as simple as possible.
     
    After Dec. 31, 2023:
    For any cases still open as of Dec. 31, 2023, Allianz will work with our new service provider to responsibly transfer these cases while ensuring a seamless client experience.
     
    We will communicate this news next week to your clients who have Travel Assist coverage on their plan. And we will continue to communicate more details to you about this transition in the coming weeks.
     
    If you have any questions, please contact your Group Account Executive or myFlex Sales Manager.

  4. New 350 Life and CI Applications

    On August 2nd, 2023, Equitable Life® will be updating the privacy and legal sections on some forms. This includes the form 350 Paper Application for Life and/or Critical Illness Insurance. This change will also be applied on our websites and our online application EZComplete®. These changes are part of Bill 64. The Bill is about the protection of personal and private information in Quebec. This will take effect on September 1st, 2023.

    For all regions outside Quebec, we will support a transition period from ‘old’ to ‘new’ applications until December 31st, 2023. After this date, we will no longer accept older versions of our Life and Critical Illness application.








    To make sure you are using the latest version of the application, check the date on the title page. It should say May 2023. See the image below:
