Patient Connect NB is a provincially managed, bilingual patient registry that matches New Brunswickers with a family doctor or nurse practitioner on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once you are referred to a practice, you will be contacted directly by the Primary Care Provider’s office.
NB Health Link is a new service that provides New Brunswickers with access to health care, while they wait for a permanent provider (family physician or nurse practitioner). The program provides patients with access to a network of health professionals throughout the province, offering in-person, telephone, and online appointments in both official languages.
The program will be offered to patients who are on the Patient Connect NB registry who do not have a permanent health care provider. In order to be referred to the NB Health Link program, New Brunswickers must register on the Patient Connect list first. Patients will then be contacted via phone on a first-come, first-served basis by their registration date once the service is available in their area.
Patient Connect NB will continue to refer patients to providers in areas not yet supported by NB Health Link.
Important information:
NB health Link is launching in phases by region.
Please ensure to answer phones calls from “Patient Connect NB/ Accès Patient NB” as it will be the only way to be registered for NB Health Link. Similarly, if receiving a letter in the mail, please respond immediately. Once registered, a welcome package will be sent with information about the service and how to schedule an appointment.
We please ask for your patience during this process as it may take a few months to contact everyone, even once the service is available in your region. Patients without a primary care provider have priority for referral to NB Health Link. If you currently have a provider but are on the list to switch to a different provider, you will be prioritized in future phases of the NB Health Link rollout.
