Serge Melanson confirmed online registration for a video, phone or messaging consultation with a nurse practitioner or doctor is only available between 10 a. Up until last week, registration for the service, offered to all New Brunswickers with a Medicare card free of charge since late January as a way to divert patients from overwhelmed emergency departments during the Omicron spike, was open from 8 a. So some people who registered later in the day and had waited sometimes more than two hours in the virtual waiting room for the next available provider were having their appointments cancelled as the virtual clinic closed. They had to get up the next morning and show up to [their other jobs]. So they stopped seeing people late in the evening. The technology eVisitNB uses does not permit registrations to be carried over to the following day, said Melanson. Once the clinic closes, the technology shuts down, and anyone waiting to be seen is asked to rebook the following day. People were not expecting to kind of have that. By "compressing" the registration hours, eVisitNB has "essentially eliminated" the number of patients being "timed out" of the waiting room, said Melanson. Meanwhile, the service hours have not changed, he said, with some providers still seeing patients as late as 11 p. In fact, this past week we've been seeing more of them. On Wednesday, for example, nearly patients received consultations for common illnesses, injuries or mental health concerns, said Melanson, and no appointments were cancelled at the end of the day. The average wait was about minutes — or just over three hours, he said, noting patients don't spend the entire time "ear-to-phone," they receive an email or text message advising them shortly before their consultation is set to begin.

Since the evisitnb.ca of April, evisitnb.ca, doctors and nurse practitioners on the app have been unable to refer patients for blood tests.
