Blink Parametric Expands Services to include Saskatchewan Blue Cross® Through Canassurance; Enhances travel insurance services for travelling Canadians world-wide

 Blink Parametric announces further expansion of its real-time flight disruption service as it partners with Saskatchewan Blue Cross as part of a major initiative set to enhance travel insurance coverage for travelling Canadians. Recognised as one of the Top 100 Companies in Canada’s western province of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Blue Cross proudly supports more than 130,000 members with health and wellness benefits, travel insurance and life insurance solutions.

Carl Carter, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of Blink Parametric said of the launch, “We are proud to extend our growing relationship with Blue Cross to now include Saskatchewan Blue Cross. We know we’re doing something right when a top-tier partner that is as consumer-centric as Blue Cross extends Blink’s real-time flight disruption solutions across Canada. It helps to have an amazing product, but we are also very fortunate that our relationship is reinforced by trust and shared values that prioritise the customer experience.”

Saskatchewan Blue Cross will be offering policyholders a service, through their partnership with Canassurance, whereby individuals can register for flight delay coverage up to one hour ahead of their departure time. Once registered, they’ll have access to an airport lounge and/or hotel access, and cash, depending on the length of the delay.

Blink is quickly becoming one of the most innovative and successful providers of real-time flight disruption and lost luggage solutions to insurers and major brands across the globe. It offers customers a proactive real-time insurance service that meets the speed and convenience that customers greatly value by swiftly notifying travellers if a flight is delayed. Real-time event notification allows for a range of real-time assistance options to be delivered straight to the traveller in their time of need – whilst delivering operational efficiency on processing high frequency, low severity claims for insurance partners.

“We’re committed to ensuring our travel insurance plans cover the needs of those we serve. Whether you’re planning a much-deserved vacation, visiting loved ones in another province or country, or heading off on a business trip, it’s essential you have peace of mind while you’re away from home,” said President and CEO, Shelley Vandenberg. “The expansion of our travel insurance plan options to include new flight delay services along with other exciting enhancements gives those traveling the protection they deserve from unexpected events.”

This partnership was the culmination of ongoing collaboration between Canassurance to provide services through Blue Cross organizations in Canada, Blink Parametric and Red Consulting, one of Canada’s leading travel insurance and medical assistance consulting companies.
