            Rollover Benefit explained

            Police Health’s unique Rollover Benefit allows members to carry over any unused Annual Maximum benefit that is not claimed during the previous calendar year into the following year (Noting that claims are always paid from the current year’s Annual Maximum before the Rollover Benefit is accessed).

            For example, if you go a year without claiming Optical benefits (such as new prescription glasses and/or contact lenses) your $350 Annual Maximum becomes $700 12-months later (subject to Waiting Periods).

            New members are eligible for the Rollover Benefit after just 12 months
