Karis regularly evaluates the external vendors that we partner with. This is an important part of our accountability to our provincial funders, and our desire to manage resources well. Human Resources has recently completed a request for proposal (RFP) regarding the third party adjudicator that manages our medical leaves.

Our current provider is Acclaim Abilities Management. After careful consideration, we will begin using a new provider, Homewood Health, beginning February 3, 2025. Homewood Health is also the provider of our Family & Employee Assistance Program.

These are separate branches of the same company, with distinct divisions. You can learn more about Homewood Health Disability Management Services by following this link. Over the next few weeks more information about the transition will be provided in additional articles.
