Yukon Pharmacare does not cover the cost of products which can be obtained without a prescription, including vitamins, patent medicines, personal care items, medical/surgical supplies, laxatives, antacids and most medicines used in the treatment of colds.

Persons receiving benefits under these programs are no longer eligible if they are away from the Yukon for more than 183 consecutive days, unless the absence is for more than 201 days and the individual has satisfied the director of Insurance Health Services that the Yukon is their only permanent residence.

If you move out of the territory permanently, benefits cease on the date of your departure.
