At Ecotone, we’re always looking for ways to improve our coverage and ensure our members get the best value for their health and dental benefits. As of March 1, 2025, we’re excited to announce enhanced plan designs, a brand-new higher coverage plan, and refined pricing—all aimed at making TIP the best choice for hospitality workers and other professionals without employer-sponsored benefits.

Introducing the New Diamond Plan

Our Diamond Plan is the highest level of coverage we’ve ever offered! With enhanced benefits and competitive pricing, it provides an even stronger safety net for members looking for top-tier health and dental protection.

Enhanced Benefits in the Platinum Plan

We’ve made meaningful improvements to our Platinum Plan, including the addition of eye exam coverage to support proactive eye health. Plus, we’ve adjusted our pricing to make the overall cost lower while keeping only a slight increase in the health-only portion to accommodate these enhancements.

What’s New & Improved in 2025?

Here are some key updates across our plans:

Expanded Vision Coverage – Now covering eye exams every two years and up to $200 for glasses and contacts (Diamond Plan).
More Affordable Pricing – We’ve adjusted pricing downward overall, with bundling discounts when you combine health and dental coverage.
Comprehensive Travel Coverage – Up to 90 days per trip (Diamond) or 60 days per trip (Platinum) with $5,000,000 in lifetime coverage.
High Drug & Health Reimbursements – Get 80% coverage on prescriptions, with an option for 90% coverage when using our online pharmacy, PocketPills.
More Paramedical Coverage – Up to $500 per service per year (Diamond Plan) for healthcare professionals like chiropractors, massage therapists, and physiotherapists.

Why TIP Stands Out in the Industry

The Industry Plan was built to bridge the gap for hospitality workers, part-time employees, and others who typically miss out on employer benefits. Here’s what makes us unique:

No Health Questions or Medical Exams – Guaranteed acceptance means no exclusions for pre-existing conditions.
Seamless, Digital-First Experience – Powered by Simply Benefits, our platform makes it easy to manage claims and coverage.
Access to PocketPills Digital Pharmacy – Get prescriptions delivered for free, with extra savings on covered medications.
24/7 Virtual Healthcare – Speak to a doctor or mental health professional anytime, anywhere.
Additional Wellness & Support Services – Including Member Assistance Program (MAP), Eldercare Support, and Second Medical Opinion services.

Updated Pricing for 2025

We’ve worked hard to keep pricing affordable while enhancing coverage. TIP members can save even more when they bundle health & dental plans together.

Looking Ahead – 2025 is Going to Be BIG!

With these exciting changes, TIP is set for major growth in 2025. We’re committed to continuing our mission of providing accessible, affordable, and high-quality health and dental coverage to workers across Canada.
