Under our current policy, we allow members who leave the military up to three additional months of coverage to help them to transition to civilian pharmacies, to find a doctor, and so on.
My section also deals with the transition of members. We print the complete drug profile for all members who are transferred to Veterans Affairs Canada and send that profile to the department. Veterans Affairs Canada then tells us what will and won't be covered for these people who will now be veterans.
We pass on the information to patients so they can determine whether they will be adequately covered when they leave the military. In our case, it's full coverage, but it isn't necessarily for the veterans. For them, health problems related to service are covered. There are other aspects that are also covered, but I'm not sure which exactly.
