Family Coverage

Definition


Family Coverage: In Canadian insurance, the option that lets one main policy insure a group of related people instead of buying separate policies for each person. Most often used in health, dental, travel, or life insurance, Family Coverage usually protects the policyholder (often a parent or guardian) plus their spouse and any dependent children under a single premium or benefit limit. It simplifies administration and is typically less expensive than insuring each person individually, though the exact definition of “family member” and the scope of benefits vary by insurer and province.
