Currently, UHIP members are eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, based on provincial eligibility guidelines that include: supply of vaccine, age, occupation, and ‘hot spots’ that have a high infection rate. Eligibility changes quickly depending on supply and demand. Members are encouraged to bookmark their local public health web page and check daily for updates.
The locations below provide COVID-19 vaccinations. The Ministry of Health (MOH) reimburses mass vaccination sites, mobile clinics, pop-up clinics, public health units and pharmacies for administering the COVID-19 vaccination, but does not reimburse private doctor offices or nurse practitioners for individuals without OHIP. Depending on where the UHIP member is vaccinated, there may be charge, and it’s eligible for reimbursement under UHIP – see below.
