Uninsured Services & Subscription Plans
OHIP does not cover common services including prescription renewals without an appointment, doctors notes, forms, insurance notes, emailed results, requests for records, or physician medical advice over email. We now offer annual subscription plans to cover most of these services*. Private insurance and health spending accounts may cover the costs of these plans; check with your insurance provider.

Includes the most commonly requested services (see chart below). Does not include requests for physician medical advice via email.

Boundaries & Limitations
Email medical advice is only suitable for simple, non-urgent matters that do not require a physical exam. Requests should never be made electronically for emergent, urgent, or serious medical concerns. The doctor will only provide advice electronically if it is safe and appropriate to do so. If your request cannot be handled electronically you may be asked to schedule an in-person appointment. You must be in Canada at the time of your request. It can take up to 5 business days to receive a response.
Email Medical Advice
Your doctor will give you enough medication supply until it is necessary to re-evaluate your condition. If you run out of medication before you are able to schedule an appointment, then you may request a prescription renewal without an appointment. Your doctor will fax a renewal if it is safe and appropriate to do so, otherwise you may be requested to schedule an appointment. This service can take up to 5 business days.
