Tia Health is a Canadian healthcare service that functions online—providing a convenient alternative to users who are in need of fast testing, prescriptions and renewals, and trusted advice.
Its services can be covered fully with a valid health card if the user is in Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta, and is available to Canadians in all other provinces for fees starting at $30 CAD. To access Tia Health's doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals, users just need to select whether their appointment preference is via phone or video call, and then choose a practitioner. From there, Tia Health allows them to select their appointment type, include any symptoms they're experiencing, and find a suitable time slot for their appointment.
