Important Information
- If you are sick or injured outside of the Halton Region, please use our “Find a Canadian Clinic Search” to locate the nearest Direct-Billing Medical Facility to your current location.
- If you are being admitted to the hospital or have been referred for expensive diagnostic testing (such as an MRI or CT scan), or need surgery, you are required to call guard.me’s Emergency Assistance number, 1-888-756-8428 (Toll-Free in North America) or 905-752-6230. This phone number is also found on the back of your guard.me Healthcare Access Card.
