Health Connect Registry, Community Updates

If you have registered for the Health Connect Registry, online or by phone, the information has been shared with the Primary Care Network in your community. The Primary Care Network team is actively working with clinics in the community to attach registrants and will contact you when a family doctor or nurse practitioner is available.

In the interim, the Primary Care Network in your community may have general updates to share. Updates may include information about new or expanded clinics, new family doctors or nurse practitioners accepting patients, and other initiatives taking place to connect patients with health care providers.
