Nunavut Health Care Plan (Drug Coverage)
NU Drug Coverage
The Nunavut Health Care Plan and the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary provide coverage for eligible prescription drugs for Nunavut residents. The plan covers prescription drugs listed on the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary, with recent updates allowing nurse practitioners to fully prescribe medications and pharmacists to supervise pharmacies remotely to improve access.
Conseils utiles pour la demande
Register for the Nunavut Health Care Plan as soon as you are eligible, since it is required for drug coverage. Check the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary to see if your medication is covered. In communities without a doctor, a nurse practitioner can now prescribe medications, so ask at your local health center.
Qui peut être admissible
You may qualify if you are a Nunavut resident registered with the Nunavut Health Care Plan. Coverage applies to eligible prescription drugs listed on the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary, dispensed at participating pharmacies.
Documents requis
Proof of Nunavut residency, a valid Nunavut Health Care Card, and a prescription for a medication listed on the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary.
Comment présenter une demande
Register for the Nunavut Health Care Plan through the Nunavut Department of Health. Coverage applies to prescription drugs listed on the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary, dispensed at participating pharmacies.
Erreurs courantes à éviter
A common mistake is not registering for the Nunavut Health Care Plan, which is required for drug coverage. Another is not checking the Government of Nunavut Drug Formulary to see if your medication is covered. People also miss that nurse practitioners can now fully prescribe medications, which expands access in communities without a doctor.
