We are pleased to say the portal is now securely restored, and claims are being processed. You can sign in to your MSH PSHCP Member Portal account to safely submit claims online again.
We take the protection of our customers’ personal information seriously.
That is why before resuming services, MSH took the time to reinforce its security controls and conducted extensive testing to ensure the MSH PSHCP Member Portal was secure. The MSH process to restore service meets the Government of Canada’s strict security standards.
MSH is encouraging all members to change their portal password, and to always use good password hygiene. That means:
- Creating strong passwords with a combination of
letters, numbers and symbols - Using different passwords for every online account
- Changing your passwords often

Since the PSHCP was transitioned in July 2023, a significant number of claims needed immediate attention by MSH. This created a backlog of claims that we are continuously working to reduce.
We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding.
Please do not re-submit your claim in order to minimize duplicate requests, which could further delay claim processing times.
If your claim is for an urgent, life-sustaining prescription drug, service or treatment, you are a person with a disability, or you are experiencing financial hardships related to your claim, please follow the Urgent needs escalation process.
MSH International, a third-party subcontractor providing emergency travel assistance and comprehensive coverage services to federal government employees, retired members and their eligible dependants, was recently the victim of a cyber incident that has impacted service for some clients. This resulted in MSH temporarily turning off its PSHCP Member Portal.
Canada Life and MSH are taking this matter very seriously. Upon learning of this incident, MSH immediately began an investigation into the full impact of the incident and turned off the Member Portal. MSH is continuing to work with cybersecurity experts to contain the situation and has now restored the portal. Our priority is to protect your information and ensure that the systems environment is safe.
