If you do not have OHIP, you might be able to get health care services at a CHC.
Community Health Centers (CHCs) are non-profit organizations that provide primary health care for individuals, families and communities.
In addition to providing clinical treatment, CHCs may have:
* Culturally-sensitive care in different languages
* Anti-racism programs
* Sexual health education
* Domestic violence prevention and treatment
* Parenting education
* Support for teenage mothers
* Drop-in programs for youth
Some CHCs offer integrated health care, language and settlement programs specifically for immigrants and refugees.

新登陆3个月内没有医保卡如何免费看病?孩子打预防针怎么办?
没有医保卡的时候,可以找CHC免费看病和给孩子打预防针。CHC是社区的医疗中心,免费看病的或者有的治疗收取非常少的钱。
有了CHC是否就意味着不需要买旅游险了呢?
不是,因为CHC不会管你的药费,也不会管你住院的费用等等。而且即便是看病,通常需要提前2周预约,而且有些病会让你还是去看Clinic的。因为CHC并不会像Clinic那样可以诊断的。
CHC 比较常做的就是打预防针,给新生儿称重及养育咨询等等。
下面两段是去过CHC的同学的评价,供参考。免费的东西咱们也不能指望太高,对吧?
“CHCs offer free routine immunizations (booked appointments so limited number per week), they do weigh new babies and consult with parents in weekly sessions (eg breastfeeding, developmental questions, etc), new baby visits are made by nurses as required, Youth drop-in clinics weekly, Seniors blood pressure clinics, etc. These services are limited by the number of staff and length of clinic - approximately 2 hours per week. Many Health Centres are cutting programmes in order to balance their budgets. So you can see, while CHCs offer good services, they are not intended to be used as emergency services. You would still be referred to a walk-in medical clinic. ”
“ the system isn't built as an optional health provider. They are an adjunct to the medical system, providing routine services cheaper than a doctor's office, but they are not diagnostic. Clients with assessed problems would be referred to a medical clinic. ”
Services at CHCs are free. All services are confidential, and some, such as tests for pregnancy and HIV/AIDS, may be anonymous. You may be eligible for services at a CHC even if you do not have a Health Card. http://www.settlement.org/sys/faqs_detail.asp?faq_id=4001229 How can I pay for health care in my first 3 months in Ontario, or if I don't have OHIP?
