Admitting
Effective August 28, 2025, the MCH will no longer issue hospital cards. Please make sure your health insurance card is valid.

All patients visiting the MCH for the first time must go to the  Admitting Office to register. For any appointment or hospital admission, please bring:

  • The valid Quebec health insurance card of your child
  • The hospital card of your child
  • The list of your child’s medications, including over-the-counter medications, dietary supplements and natural products
  • Your child’s immunization record

If your child does not have a valid Quebec health insurance card, please bring at least one of the following: 

  • A valid health insurance card from another Canadian province or territory
  • Proof of your private health insurance coverage

Babies born at the MUHC will temporarily use their mother’s health insurance card. Parents must update the file once the baby has been given a name and a RAMQ card.

Getting a hospital card

The MCH Admitting Office is located on RC level, near the Royal Victoria Hospital’s main entrance (C RC.0036)
