My recent drug prescription is not covered by my health plan. How can it be added to the plan?

How can I coordinate my plan with my spouse's plan?
If you or your dependants are covered under more than one benefits plan, you can claim up to 100% of an eligible expense by coordinating your benefits under both plans. Here's how:
- The plan that covers you as a plan member pays first. Then, the plan that covers you as a dependant pays any remaining eligible balance.
- Your spouse's claims should go to his or her plan first, and then any remaining balance should be sent to your plan.
- Dependent children are covered first by the plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in the calendar year. In other words, if your birthday falls in January and your spouse's birthday is in March, you should submit your children's claims to your plan first.
- Your first benefit plan will send you an explanation of how much of your claim has been covered. You will need to send that explanation, along with copies of your expense receipts, to the second benefits plan in order to claim any remaining balance that is eligible.
