Tips Before You Go

Always bring your Quebec health insurance card (RAMQ card) — without it, you may need to pay out of pocket and request reimbursement later.
ER access is restricted to the patient and immediate family only; plan accordingly if bringing support.
Parking under 2 hours is free, which covers many urgent but less serious ER visits — have change or a card ready for longer stays.
For non-emergency specialist services like electrophysiology or the short-term geriatric unit, a doctor's referral or prescription is required.
If you are discharged, arrange your own transportation home in advance — the hospital does not provide transport, and you must leave within 1–2 hours of discharge.

What to Bring

Quebec health insurance card (carte d'assurance maladie / RAMQ card)
Government-issued photo ID
List of current medications and dosages
List of known allergies
Any relevant medical records or recent test results
Health insurance information (if applicable, e.g., private or federal coverage)
Payment method for parking
