Abstract
Although other alternatives might exist, identification cards have been chosen as an acceptable and adequate tool to be used to identify patients and health professionals.They are planned for a digital signature and for access to electronic health records as well as for health information exchange and for databases querying. Local applications might exist independently, but the Federal State has now developed BeHealth, a platform for health professionals, social security personnel as well as the great public to facilitate a common access to some health data. Security conditions have been defined and are described.
