VirtualCareNS provides Nova Scotians with virtual access to a primary care provider (family doctor or nurse practitioner).

As a Nova Scotian with a primary care provider, you will have access to 2 free visits per calendar year. Basic Care providers offer basic healthcare advice or prescription renewals (except controlled substances).  

Basic Care providers can not order tests or refer you to specialists or in-person care.

Please note that not all visits are appropriate for virtual care. You may be directed to your primary care provider or an emergency department.

If you are unsure about where to find care in your community, please visit nshealth.ca/wheretogoforhealthcare.
