Save time and add protection — log in to your Equitable account with a passkey
Passkeys offer an easier, faster way for you and your clients to log in to EquitableHealth.ca®. They also add an extra layer of account protection.
Easy set-up. Secure access.
If you haven’t created a passkey yet – now is a great time. You can create one on both your computer and mobile device.
When you set up a passkey on your mobile device, you’ll use biometrics –your face or fingerprint–to log in. This verifies your identity, so only you can access your account on your device.
Setting up a passkey on your computer is slightly different. You may have more options to verify your identity, such as biometrics, a personal identification number (PIN) or a password.
To learn more about passkeys, visit Equitable.ca/effortless.You hold the ‘key’ to further protecting your account
You’re the only one who can create passkeys. We can’t create them for you.
The set-up process is quick and easy. The videos below guide you through creating a passkey on your mobile device and computer.
If you use the same email address to log in to your accounts on EquitableHealth.ca, EquiNet® and Equitable Client Access®, you can use the same passkey. Equitable Client Access is our secure site for Individual Insurance and Individual Wealth clients.
New form offers a simpler way for clients to submit special claims
Equitable has simplified the special claim process for clients by introducing an interactive Special Claims Services form.
The new form, which replaces our previous online calculator, automatically calculates the fees and taxes based on province, so clients can clearly see the total of a special claim – and how much they need to pay.
What is a special claim?
A plan sponsor can submit a claim for Special Claims Services – sometimes referred to as Cost Plus – to pay for a plan member’s health and dental expenses that are either not included or not covered in full by their group benefits plan.
When submitting the claim, the plan sponsor also pays us for the cost of the expense, plus a service fee and taxes. Then, we reimburse the plan member or another designated payee.
Anything eligible under a health-care spending account (HCSA) is eligible under Special Claims Services. Our HCSA list of eligible expenses matches the Canada Revenue Agency’s list of eligible medical expenses that can be claimed on a tax return.
When a plan sponsor submits a special claim, there is no impact to the claims experience, pooling or taxes. Given that every situation is unique, however, the plan sponsor is responsible for consulting with an accountant on tax impacts and/or claim limitations that may apply.
For more information on Special Claims Services, check out this brochure or email SpecialClaimsServices@equitable.ca.
2026 dental fee guide updates
Several Canadian dental associations have published their 2026 fee guides. We use these guides to help set benefits reimbursement limits for dental procedures.
For your reference, here is the list of this year’s fee increases for general practitioners.

Client Access login is changing
Equitable wants to keep client’s information safe. Starting in January 2026, all clients will be asked to use an email address to log in to Client Access®, our secure client website for insurance and investments transactions.
What’s changing?
In January, all clients must use their email address to log in to Client Access. They will no longer be able to use a username. If clients can’t remember which email they used to register for Client Access, they can simply click “Forgot email” on the login page to get help. If clients use a password, they may need to enter a one-time code sent to their email.
Clients looking for extra security?
Clients can also create a Passkey. This makes logging in easier and safer.

Term vs permanent life insurance: helping clients choose the best solution for them
Most people understand why life insurance matters. What they’re often unsure about is which type of coverage is right for them. As an advisor, you’re in a unique position to do more than present options, you can help clients feel confident they’re making an informed choice.
Start with the client, not the product
Before discussing insurance solutions, you can start by asking three important questions:
1. What do you need to protect today?
2. What are you trying to achieve for the future?
3. What is your budget?
By asking these questions you will get a better understanding of which solution fits the client’s needs.
Matching the solution to the client
Term life insurance may be ideal for clients who have budget considerations and need coverage for:
• Helping to replace income
• Helping cover a mortgage or other debts
• Business protection
• A specific period of time (10 – 30 years)
If a client wants lifetime coverage but can’t afford it right now, term insurance is a good option. It gives them affordable coverage today that they can later choose to convert to permanent insurance when their income increases.1
Permanent life insurance (whole life and universal life) is an option for clients looking for lifelong coverage and added long-term value. It’s a good option for clients who want to:
• Build an inheritance
• Preserve their estate
• Build tax advantaged cash value growth
Permanent life insurance is also an excellent way for parents or grandparents to help give children or grandchildren some lasting financial security. It secures lifetime protection at a lower cost when the child is young and healthy. It also offers the potential for cash value growth that they can access if needed.
Helping clients make confident choices
By focusing on what the client needs now—and what they might need later—you can help them pick life insurance that fits their changing life and financial goals. Share this client‑friendly piece that outlines some of the things that clients should consider to make an informed decision:
Which life insurance solution is right for you?
Reminder: Clients’ needs can change; it’s a good idea to review their coverage regularly.
For any questions, contact your Equitable wholesaler.
