The Manitoba government is following through on its commitment to deliver a new and modernized health card this year and as part of the next step in the process, Manitobans are invited to help choose the design of the new card, Premier Wab Kinew announced today.
“The initial response to our new health card designs was amazing,” said Kinew. “However, we want to make sure that all Manitobans have the opportunity to provide feedback on which card best reflects our unique province and people. Let us know and have a say about our province’s new health card.”
Manitobans can view and vote for their favourite Manitoba health card design at EngageMB. The designs feature iconic Manitoba symbols such as a bison, a polar bear and the northern lights.
The premier noted that all Manitobans can also help ensure a smooth transition to the new health card by reviewing their current health card and ensuring that all information is accurate and up to date. This includes making sure the card accurately reflects everyone in the household who is eligible for health-care coverage in the province and the mailing address is current.
