In Québec, everyone must be covered by prescription drug insurance. Two types of insurance plans offer this coverage:

• private plans (group insurance or employee benefit plans);
• the public plan, that is, the one administered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec.

If you are eligible for a private plan, you must join that plan. Otherwise, you must register for the public plan. We suggest that you check your situation by answering a short questionnaire. By doing so, you'll avoid unpleasant surprises.
