Health cards are not currently being mailed. You (and your family if applicable) will be sent a Confirmation of Coverage letter by email if you are eligible for coverage, have applied for health benefits and you provided your email address with your application. The Confirmation of Coverage letter can be used in place of a health card. Your health card(s) will be mailed to you when regular mail service resumes.
