SGI seeks input on auto injury program


SGI is asking the public and stakeholders for feedback over the next several months as part of a review of its auto injury program.


“We want to ensure the injury program is still effectively meeting the needs of Saskatchewan residents,” SGI president and CEO Andrew Cartmell said in a press release Friday.
“The last full review was done over a decade ago, so the program is due for a thorough checkup.”

For the first stage of the review, SGI is contacting customers with a current or former auto injury claim, healthcare and other service providers, the legal community, and other stakeholders for input.

The recommendations made by the Motorcycle Review Committee pertaining to injury coverage options will also be incorporated into this stage of the review, SGI said.

SGI is also planning to create a review panel representing customers and key stakeholders, who will consider input and evaluate all aspects of injury coverage, including benefit levels, the appeal process and whether any additional benefits should be offered.

In the second stage of the review, planned to begin  in late summer, a list of options will be developed and put forward to the public for feedback, SGI said. Once all feedback is gathered, a report will be prepared by the end of the year.
