What is the ePA / Health ID?
Electronic Patient Record (ePA)
The electronic patient record (ePA) is a digital file in which medical information such as findings, doctor’s letters, vaccinations, or medication plans are securely stored in order to improve healthcare.
Health ID
The Health ID serves as a central authentication procedure that allows patients to log in securely to digital health applications. It replaces or supplements conventional authentication methods such as SMS TANs or simple passwords.
