All personal and health information is kept confidential and secure in accordance with applicable laws. MedCare Clinics operates under a shared care model. Completion of this form does not confirm a doctor-patient relationship. MedCare Clinics will not disclose any personal or health information to any third party (without express prior consent) except to those individuals necessary for the provision of medical services in accordance with applicable law. For all medical/physician services, a valid OHIP card must be presented at each visit to receive medical care. In the event an expired or invalid OHIP card is presented, patients will be billed directly for the medical appointment before the appointment. This payment is non-refundable. For all medical services not covered by OHIP, payment is required at the time of service. Some payments are non-refundable and may be subject to a processing fee. MedCare Clinics provides all patients with the required receipts and documents for submission to insurance companies or any 3rd party coverage providers. Please note that each patient's insurance agreement is an agreement between themselves and the insurance company directly. In the event that any insurance company or 3rd party coverage provider does not completely reimburse or reject any claim provided at MedCare Clinics, the patient remains responsible for all fees. Please note that certain healthcare providers at our facility exclusively see adult patients (18 years of age and older). We recommend verifying provider eligibility for younger patients prior to booking an appointment. Not all services are available and are subject to Provider availability. Please check with your local MedCare Clinics for further information. To ensure you receive the care you need, we recommend contacting your local MedCare Clinics directly. The clinic staff can provide you with up-to-date information about the services available at your specific location, as well as the availability of healthcare providers.
