NEW GREEN SHIELD CANADA WEBSITE ELIMINATES THE DIGITAL DIVIDE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
December 1, 2011- Toronto, ON: Today Green Shield Canada unveils their new website that—unique to the industry—offers free online accessibility technology.
“We developed our new website as part of a whole new look because we want people to know that we’re not a typical health and dental benefits carrier. We’re different… we’re a compelling alternative, so we’ve updated our look to more accurately represent what we’re all about,” explains Steve Bradie, president and CEO. “And although our look has changed, as Canada’s only national not-for-profit health and dental benefits specialist, we’re still focused on the same driving force since 1957…we’re focused on the greater good and a perfect example is the free online accessibility technology available on our new website.”
