How we take care of it

A to Z — not a cent out of your pocket

You fill out no forms and pay nothing up front. We handle everything.

We complete the whole file

Our physicians and nurse practitioners in Quebec build, validate and submit your entire VAC file — every form, A to Z. You fill out nothing.

No cost to you

Consultation and file handling are completely free for eligible veterans. This insured group pays nothing, ever.

No money up front

We refer you to an online medical cannabis platform (Mendo Medical) where you order without paying up front or waiting for reimbursement. The platform covers your cannabis immediately and deals with the insurer.

Are you eligible?

If you are a Canadian Armed Forces or RCMP veteran receiving VAC benefits for an entitled condition, your medical cannabis may be covered. VAC generally reimburses up to 3 g per day, depending on the terms of your file.

Coverage depends on VAC approval and a practitioner's assessment. Coverleaf does not guarantee eligibility, but guides you through every step of the claim.
