NH Connections medical travel service

Northern Health Connections is a travel service program for patients needing to travel for out-of-town medical appointments in Northern BC and Vancouver.

We provide patients with transportation options to reduce one of the costs associated with visiting specialists, obtaining specialized diagnostic testing, and receiving other health care services not available in the patient's home community.

Northern Health Connections will offer patients the support they need to get the services they require.

NH Connections is operated under contract to Northern Health by Diversified Transportation Ltd. (DTL) of British Columbia. DTL is a division of Pacific Western Transportation.
