“We encourage people to place the renewal sticker on their health card so they can continue to receive medical services.”

If residents who have not received their renewal packages in the mail by mid-October they should go online to update their address at eHealth Saskatchewan.

Mailed out packages will also include organ donor stickers.  People must attach the sticker to their health card and sign it to indicate their intention to donate.
