IMPORTANT INFORMATION
HEALTH-CARE SERVICE PROVIDER DELISTING
When Sun Life delists health-care service providers, clinics, facilities or medical suppliers (referred to as the “provider” below), Sun Life will no longer process or pay for claims for services or supplies obtained from that provider. These providers are placed on a Sun Life “delisted providers” list.
Delisted provider update
Sun Life’s list has been updated. To view the newly delisted providers, you must log in to your own password protected web page through mysunlife.ca and select the message for delisted providers.
You are encouraged to check the list periodically so that you don’t unknowingly use a delisted provider, which would result in your claim being declined.
Why delisting a provider is necessary
It’s important that only eligible claims are processed and paid. It allows Sun Life to better protect you, your employer and your group benefits plan.
Questions?
Please call Sun Life at 1.800.361.6212, Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET.

It is with great excitement that I am announcing the appointment of Dr. Sterling Crowe to the role of Associate Dean, Student Wellness & Equitable Learning. Sterling comes to Humber after leadership experiences at Centennial College and Nipissing University where he has led teams in residence life, student life, student learning and transitions, and accessible learning and counseling services. During his hectic professional career, Sterling has also successfully completed his MA in History and most recently his Ed D. in Higher Education from Western University.
Sterling brings an intentional and evidenced-informed approach to his work as an educator, administrator and leader. He places leading people, priorities and projects at the centre of his work and ensures that student voices and input are considered in program review, development, and design through the use of student-centric consultation processes. As an example, in his previous roles at Centennial, Sterling was integral in leading comprehensive service reviews, developing a new model supported by data and engagement, and implementing these models to support student wellness, accessibility and success.
Throughout his career, Sterling has demonstrated the ability to balance strategic and systems thinking while maintaining supportive and impactful relationships, which is a mindset that will serve him well in his new role. When Sterling joins Humber on February 22, albeit virtually, he will be overseeing a team of leaders who support students in the areas of Residence Life, Student Conduct and Sexual Violence Prevention, Student Health and Counselling, Accessible Learning Services, and Testing Services. Please join me and the team in Student Success and Engagement in welcoming Sterling to Humber.
Welcome to Humber, Sterling!
