ServiceOntario virtual appointments for health card renewals
ServiceOntario is now offering virtual appointments to renew health cards.
A virtual appointment is a video call with a ServiceOntario customer service representative to help you renew your health card from home, without visiting in-person at a ServiceOntario centre.
This virtual appointment pilot service is currently available if your health card is not expired yet and you:
- have a permanent photo and signature exemption, or
- are 18 years of age or older and have a valid photo health card that does not require a new photo and signature
Further requirements may apply. Call ServiceOntario to learn more about virtual appointments.
