When are you covered?

- Transportation directly to and from the arena or venue.
- Accommodations while billeted or at a hotel during a Hockey Canada/Branch sanctioned hockey activity.
Major Medical / Dental Coverage
This insurance augments Provincial, Medical and Hospital plans. It covers players, coaches, referees and other designated volunteers against accidents that occur during participation in a Hockey Canada/Branch sanctioned activity.
This plan is designed to provide coverage for those who might otherwise not be covered by any other group health insurance plan. It can also serve as a supplement to other similar coverage an individual or family may hold, to achieve maximum allowable coverage. It is not applicable as an addition when another plan's coverage meets or exceeds the allowable amount. If you have primary insurance you must make a claim to them first. If you have maximized those benefits you need to send in documentation to Hockey Manitoba to verify this. You can then claim any additional expenses through Hockey Canada.
FURTHER INFORMATION ON COVERAGE, POLICY LIMITS AND ADDITIONAL FEATURES OF THE INSURANCE PROGRAM CAN BE FOUND IN THE "SAFETY FOR ALL" DOCUMENT
To Make a Claim
- SECURE a Hockey Canada Injury Report Form from your team or Minor Hockey Association.
- COMPLETE THE FORM IN ITS ENTIRITY. Have your team official complete the team section and your Doctor/Dentist complete the back of the form. If any portion of the front page is not completed the form will be returned to you and the claim process will be delayed. If a Doctor or Dentist has not filled out the second page you will not receive any reimbursement.
- SUBMIT the fully completed form to the Hockey Manitoba office (along with any receipts or invoices you have accumulated at this point) within 90 days of the date of injury. If forms are incomplete they will be returned.
NOTE:
- Only completed Injury Report Forms received in the Hockey Manitoba office within 90 days of the date of injury will be accepted. Additional invoices and receipts may be added to the claim for up to 365 days.
- Forms must be completed in their entirety or the forms will be returned.
- Only original receipts and/or invoices are acceptable (If originals have been forwarded to a primary insurer, copies are acceptable). Do not fax in your claim.
- Hockey Canada is strictly a supplemental insurer. If you have access to any other insurance, you must pursue your claim through them first. Hockey Canada shall cover those costs not covered by your primary insurance to our policy limits.
