Waitlisting vs. Registration:
"In designated Health Zones within the province, such as Zone 1 (Moncton and the South-East Area), and Zone 3 (Fredericton and the River Valley Area), new registrants may be wait-listed for the program until capacity increases. Wait-listing involves registering without immediate appointment booking capabilities until capacity expands. Upon registration, individuals will receive confirmation regarding their wait-list status and no further action is required, a notification procedures for accessing our services will be sent from the program once the patient is out of the waitlist.”
The program plays a crucial role in our community by maintaining the list of patients to be matched to a permanent family doctor or nurse practitioner. Once registered, the patient will automatically become part of the list where those waiting the longest will be the first to be matched, once one Provider becomes available in their area.
