Replace your health card without retyping your personal details
Replacing a lost or stolen Ontario health card asks for the same name, date of birth, and address fields you've entered before. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca.
Official form and source
Start from the official ServiceOntario source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

Before you start: what to gather
- Your name, date of birth, and current address.
- Acceptable identity documents — confirm which are required on ontario.ca.
- Your health number if you know it (it may be on other health records).
Confirm current replacement options and any processing time on ontario.ca.
