Saskatchewan Special Support Program
SK SSP
Income-tested help for Saskatchewan residents with high prescription drug costs relative to their income.
Useful Tips for Applying
Coverage kicks in after a deductible based on income. Keep all your receipts. The lower your income, the more help you receive.
Who May Qualify
Saskatchewan residents covered under a Saskatchewan drug plan whose drug costs are high relative to their family income.
Required Documents
A filed income tax return and prescription receipts.
How to Apply
Apply through the Saskatchewan Drug Plan. Eligibility is assessed based on your prior year's income and out-of-pocket drug costs.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Not registering with the drug plan first. Assuming family income does not matter — it does.
Preparing an application?
The Application Helper walks you through each question on this benefit's form in plain language.
