Released on January 9, 2012
Saskatchewan residents are being urged to contact Health Registration if they haven't received the renewal stickers for their Saskatchewan Health Services card. The majority of Saskatchewan Health Services cards expired on December 31, 2011, and the renewal stickers revalidate health cards to December 31, 2014.
"The Saskatchewan Health Services card confirms that a Saskatchewan resident is entitled to health coverage under the provincial health insurance plan," Saskatchewan Health Services Director of Health Registration Pat Cambridge said. "Without a valid health card residents may not be able to continue receiving insured health benefits."
Health card renewal packages containing renewal stickers were mailed to Saskatchewan residents in September 2011. While the success rate of reaching residents is more than 90 per cent, there are always those who are missed because they have not advised Saskatchewan Health of changes to their personal circumstances such as address changes, moves out of province or changes in marital status.
Residents who have not received their renewal stickers to date are asked to immediately contact Health Registration Branch by mail at 100-1942 Hamilton Street, Regina, SK S4P 4W2, email at hcrenewal@health.gov.sk.ca, fax at 306-787-8951 or by phone at 306-787-3251 or 1-800-667-7551.
