Troubleshooting tips for Telemedicine

You will find below a list of common issues that may occur while using Telemedicine services, and tips to solve them.

I am not receiving the verification code on my phone.

During the Telemedicine registration process, a verification code (also known as OTP code) will be sent to the phone number you provide in the field. If you are not receiving this code, it might be for one of the following reasons:

• Your phone number is not from Canada or the United States: Currently, only phone numbers registered in Canada or in the United States can receive a verification code. Please make sure that you are using a Canadian or American phone number.

• The number is blocked: You might have previously blocked the number attempting to send you the code. Please check your phone's spam inbox and related settings. If you are still having issues, do not hesitate to contact our customer support.

• You are not using a mobile phone: Verification codes cannot be sent to landlines. Please make sure that the number you are providing is connected to a mobile phone.

I am unable to link my Maple account.

If your email is linked to an existing account on Maple, our Telemedicine service provider, you will need to link your accounts in order to access our Telemedicine platform. To do so, you must enter the password for your Maple account. If you do not have your password, you can visit Maple's Contact Us page and send them the following message:

My address is invalid.

To register for our Telemedicine service, you need to provide an address in Canada. If the mailing address saved in your MyARTA Health Hub account is in another country, you will be asked to update it to a Canadian address to register.
