Over 1,100 Kamloops residents sign on to 8-1-1 doctor wish list
KAMLOOPS — Health Minister Terry Lake says, one week after the 811 HealthLink BC line went live allowing Kamloops residents to queue up for access to primary health care, more than 1100 people have already signed up.
The phone line allows people without a family doctor or access to primary care to put their names on an actively-managed list.
Lake says he believes the service is helping the community “turn the corner.”
