Health Care Card Renewal
The Health Services Administration office in Inuvik is currently experiencing delays in processing health care card renewal forms. Due to these delays, NWT residents with recently expired health care cards will continue to receive physician and hospital services. At this time, we advise that NWT residents continue to submit their health care card renewal forms as usual.
