What is the Saskatchewan Health Card?

The Saskatchewan Health Card is a free and valuable personal identification card which is presented to health professionals when receiving health services.

Residents in Saskatchewan need a Saskatchewan Health Card in order to see a doctor without having to pay a fee. Your medical information and history may also be recorded using your health card.

International students who hold a valid study permit are eligible for the Saskatchewan Health Card. To avoid additional charges on most medical services, present your health card to the medical professional you are seeing.

Remember: The Saskatchewan Health Card is not a form of medical insurance; additional insurance may be needed to ensure your medical needs are covered.
