How compassionate
care made a
difference to
Allianz Partners.
Virtual care case study
Kristen Warden is the Director of Total Rewards for Allianz Partners Canada, an
800-person team within one of the largest insurance and assistance business in the world.
Having held different leadership and human resources roles with Allianz for nearly two decades,
Kristen has seen many benefits trends come and go — but she thinks TELUS Health Virtual
Care is a game-changer.
Our group benefits provider
pitched TELUS Health Virtual Care* to
us in light of the COVID-19 outbreak,
and I can already say that the cost is
minimal in comparison to the benefits
it provides to our employees.

Many of Allianz' employees are parents and a number of them don't have family physicians,
so having the possibility to improve their access to medical professionals — for COVID-related
concerns or otherwise — during a stressful time was very appealing.
Kristen was hopeful that the addition of virtual care would improve the employee experience,
and she was right.
