Renewal stickers for health cards are being mailed to Saskatchewan residents who currently have provincial health coverage. Provincial health cards expire on December 31, 2014. The stickers will validate health cards for a three-year period to December 31, 2017.
The renewal stickers are being mailed out by eHealth Saskatchewan from September 15 to 30. Residents who have not received their renewal packages in the mail by mid-October should go online to update their personal information at www.ehealthsask.ca. Other contact information is also available online.
The most common reason for people not to receive their renewal stickers is because they have moved and not updated their address. This year, packages will be sent to more than 689,000 households in the province. In addition to the renewal sticker(s) the Health Services Card package also includes information about the Provincial Electronic Health Record, HealthLine stickers and organ donor stickers. If organ donation is desired, individuals must attach the organ donor sticker to their health card, and sign the card indicating their intention to donate organs or tissues which is also included in the mailout.
