Register for AHCIP
How Do I Register for the AHCIP?
All residents of Alberta must register themselves and their dependants with the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP).- To receive coverage you will need to provide documentation to prove you are a resident and entitled to coverage.
- Adults and their dependants are covered on one account.
- Some Albertans choose to formally "opt out" of the AHCIP, however, everyone must still register.
- Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan registration forms are available from your employer or union, or by using the Application for Alberta Health Coverage
(Form AHC0102).
Once registered, you and your dependants are each provided with a personal health card which indicates your personal health number.
Opting out of the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan
Residents who choose not to be covered by the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan must formally “opt out” of the plan.
