Absolutely. Coverage by Kinro is optional — if you'd prefer to manage your insurance yourself, you can do that instead.
How to handle it yourself
During your online visit, upload your private or provincial benefits card. Our pharmacy can then attempt to bill your insurer when your medication is dispensed.
What's the difference between doing it myself and Coverage by Kinro?
If you handle it yourself, you're responsible for understanding your plan's coverage, any prior authorization requirements, and following up with your insurer. With Coverage by Kinro ($35), our team does all of that for you — checking the plan, confirming what's covered, and handling the paperwork.
What if my plan needs prior authorization?
Many plans require prior authorization (special authorization) for these medications. If you're handling insurance yourself and your plan requires it, contact our support team and we can provide the form your insurer needs. With Coverage by Kinro, we take care of this step for you.
