NETC@RDS For e-EHIC ID 3 The NETC@RDS Provided Service The NETC@RDS service for the electronification of the eye-readable EHIC serves three distinct processes : –Automated data capture for patient identification based on the EHIC common set of data elements –In some case, on-line verification of entitlement rights via national portals in the frame of a multilateral Agreement (G.A), and –Minimal data provision contributing to back office e-billing reconciliations The e-EHIC trustworthy dataset can be obtained either : –by scanning & optical recognition of the eye-readable EHIC information –or by reading national/regional health smart cards then by checking data on- line

11. NETC@RDS For e-EHIC ID 11 Transaction Breakdown

12. NETC@RDS For e-EHIC ID 12 Outlook for Benefits For patients –Significantly simpler and faster procedures For health care providers –Less administration and manual typing of data, speeding up costs refunding For health insurance providers –Less administration, improved reliability and security of data –saving investment in new electronic card systems For business companies and the smart card and telecom Industry –Fostering the development of e-Health services on the European market For EU convergent policy –Interoperability amongst national health and social information systems –Validated professional basis for imminent political decisions on e-EHIC –Use of the same document at EU-wide scale –Implementing new e-Health services relying on the NETC@RDS infrastructure (.e.g. secure access to medical prescription, pan-European project epSOS)

13. NETC@RDS For e-EHIC ID 13 Long Term Sustainability Background 1.16 out of 28 partners are potential e-EHIC card issuers 2.G.A as legal basis for on-line verification at the point of care 3.Operational on-line infrastructure via National Access Points as potential gateways to EESSI in 15 EU/EFTA member states + Switzerland 4.Common ISSP and security audit approval procedure 5.500 running service units/points foreseen by 2010 in the 16 NETC@RDS countries as potential e-EHIC large scale pilots 6.Know-how and lessons learnt from NETC@RDS experience 7.Implementation of Web Services based on the CWA e-EHIC Foreground –A potential piloting structure for the introduction of the e-EHIC in view of a political decision and EU-funding
