Manitoba looks to add physician-run clinics to Medinav online booking

Manitoba is looking at adding independent physician-run clinics to Medinav, its online booking system for same-day and next-day appointments, Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara says. She gave no timeline for it. Launched two years ago to steer non-emergency patients away from long waits in emergency departments and walk-in clinics, Medinav now lists only publicly run clinics. More than 91,000 appointments have been booked, with 5,000 to 7,000 a month since early 2026, government figures show. Doctors Manitoba says physicians are eager to fill open appointments, but it has had no update in over a year since meeting officials in spring 2025.
