Provider Portal Access

Already have access to Provider Portal? Login here!

Requesting access to the OPOR Provider Portal is different for users who exclusively work within IWK Health or Nova Scotia Health, and those who work exclusively in the community (ie: private clinics, pharmacies, etc.), or those who work in both environments. If you already have an account but need support, visit our Help page.

OPOR manages the access request process, and IWK Health and Nova Scotia Health managers or leadership determine eligibility. Physicians, providers and clinicians interested in using Provider Portal should speak with their managers and/or leadership about obtaining access. Access for IWK Health and Nova Scotia Health users is requested using the organization’s IT Self-Service module. All OPOR Provider Portal users must review, and be familiar with, the IWK Health and Nova Scotia Health privacy statements.
