FAQ

Timmins questions, answered

Can people in the smaller communities around Timmins use Pharmly?

Yes. Because everything is online, anyone in South Porcupine, Schumacher, Porcupine or the surrounding district can use it. With a valid Ontario health card it is free, and prescriptions can be sent to your local pharmacy.

Is this really free for Timmins residents?

Yes - with a valid Ontario health card the assessment is free, because Ontario pays pharmacies for minor ailment assessments. Without a health card it is a flat $30. If a medication is prescribed you pay the usual price for it, and your drug plan may cover it.

Do I need to visit a pharmacy in person?

No. The whole assessment happens online, and if treatment is prescribed it can be delivered to you anywhere in Timmins at no extra cost - or sent to a pharmacy near you.

I don't have a family doctor. Does that matter?

Not at all - no referral, appointment, or family doctor is needed. Pharmly exists precisely for the millions of Ontarians who don't have easy access to primary care.

What if my condition isn't treatable by a pharmacist?

The questionnaire screens for red flags, and the pharmacist will honestly tell you if your situation needs a doctor or urgent care - and point you to the right place in Timmins. A prescription is only ever provided when it is appropriate. For any emergency, call 911.
