Association générale étudiante du Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles (AGECGÎ)

Coverage period

The coverage period is 12 consecutive months. Eligibility is contingent upon maintaining student status and membership in the student association.

Start of coverage

Coverage will begin on the first day of the month following billing.

Example: A person is billed on August 1; their insurance coverage will begin on September 1, and the period for changes and withdrawals will run from September 5 to September 25.

Once you have paid all your school fees, including your plan contribution, you can submit your claims to us. Don’t forget to activate your coverage (form below)! All contributions and claims will be reimbursed only after the withdrawal period has ended.

Coverage Activation

Did you answer “no” on the form about transferring your personal information during the billing process, but still want to join the group insurance plan? Here’s what to do ↓

To activate your insurance coverage, you must fill out the following form to allow your personal data to be sent to Plan Major. Activating your coverage will allow you to file health/dental claims.

1. Complete and sign the form (it is important to fill in all fields on the form).

2. Send the form and proof of payment for your institutional invoice for the current semester to student@majorplan.ca.

3. You will receive an email confirmation that your activation request has been registered.

Please note that once your file has been activated, your personal information will be shared with insurers or insurance plan providers for the sole purpose of ensuring the proper functioning of these services.

Plan Enrollment

The insurance fee is included in your tuition invoice. All academic fees for the current session must be paid before you can receive reimbursement.

Contributions include, where applicable, premiums, administrative fees, commissions, financial reserves, and taxes that may be associated with the plan.

Family Coverage

To take advantage of an affordable family plan, you can extend your plan coverage to your children and/or spouse during the change period.

Modification period

The modification period runs from the 5th to the 25th day of the month following the first institutional billing.

Example: A person is billed on August 1, their insurance coverage will begin on September 1, and the change and withdrawal period will run from September 5 to September 25. After this period, it will no longer be possible to change coverage. You are entitled to one (1) change and withdrawal period per 12-month period.
