er_wait_links

Links to the pages where B.C. emergency department waits are published: edwaittimes.ca (Vancouver Coastal Health, Providence Health Care, Fraser Health and PHSA, per its About page) and Island Health's find care page, plus Fraser Health and Interior Health emergency department guidance. Links only: this tool never returns a wait time. No emergency wait time page was found for Interior Health or Northern Health in the pages and sitemaps checked (a search result, not proof that none exists).

Cost: 1 unit of your allowance (see Rate limits).
