Digital health cards have arrived in Manitoba.
If you have a mobile device, you can now apply for one.
“Digital health cards put Manitobans in control of their own information, make it easier to access care, and support a safer, more responsive health system,” said Wab Kinew. “Over the past year, we’ve moved from paper health cards to plastic and now to a digital option. It is a practical step that reflects our focus on patient safety, accessibility and putting people first as we make health care better for families.”
Manitobans can also use MediNav. It's an online appointment-booking system launched this year. It allows you to find and book care at participating clinics across the province.
The digital health card allows you to carry your health card information on your phone.
This will create a safer and more efficient patient experience.
