There are times when someone who is sick or has been injured will take upon himself or herself to work through the claim process. At WorkAid & Associates we believe it is never too early or too late to get professional help and advice.
When you sit down for your Free Professional Consultation, we will review your claim to make sure that you have accessed all possible benefits. The questions we continually hear are:
Why didn't anyone tell me I could claim mileage?
You may qualify for mileage reimbursement when traveling to medical facilities and medical appointments outside of your city. WorkAid & Associates can help you complete these request forms.
Why didn't anyone tell me I could get my prescriptions paid for?
The Trillium Drug Program (TDP) is intended for Ontario residents who have a valid Ontario Health Card and who have high prescription drug costs in relation to their net household income. WorkAid & Associates will work with you to determine which of your prescription drug products will be eligible and if additional support is available for any drug products that may not normally be funded by TDP.
Why didn't anyone tell me I could appeal a decision?
If a decision is made that you do not agree with, your first step should be to discuss the issue with an advocate. By communicating constructively WorkAid & Associates can often resolve a dispute early, without going through the substantial time and effort of a formal appeal.
Why didn't anyone tell me I could get money for help around the house?
WSIB may provide funding for you as a home owner or for your landlord to carry out renovations that improve accessibility as well as services such as home cleaning or lawn maintenance. When you meet with WorkAid & Associates we will review your information and determine elegibality.
Why didn't anyone tell me I could still (and should) put money away for my retirement?
Understanding the issues around eligibility that you must demonstrate, WorkAid & Associates will help you determine your opportunities around retirement opportunities such as the Loss of Retirement Income Fund.
