Health Association Nova Scotia is a not-for-profit, non-government, membership based organization with almost 60 years of experience in delivering shared services. One of our core service offerings is Group Benefits Solutions. We provide a range of comprehensive and cost-effective benefits plans, designed to help protect plan members and their families. Serving over 40,000 active employees and 8,000 retirees, we are the largest, longest-standing provider of group benefits administration services in Nova Scotia’s health system.
As a third-party administrator for health employers across Nova Scotia, we ensure provincial practices are in place, allowing for competitive and sustainable rates, as well as consistent coverage and benefit administration for all health workers enrolled in our plans. We also have strong governance structures, comprised equally of union and employer (both health authority and continuing care sectors) representatives. These representatives are involved in rate setting, plan design, investment monitoring and so on.
On a day-by-day basis, we support our Plan Members through a variety of key roles, such as completing enrollments; managing employee and retiree data (including making changes to pertinent plan member information); coordinating claims; plan member communications and much more.
Our team is dedicated to excellence through innovation and outstanding performance built on over 115 years of tried-and-true experience. Contact us toll free at 1-866-886-7246 at any time if you have questions regarding your benefits and we’d be happy to assist you.
