The app is a voluntary supplement to your physical health card and serves as valid documentation of the right to receive health services in Denmark.
This means that you can use your health card on your mobile phone in the places where you usually use your physical health card.
With the Health Card app on your mobile, you get a number of benefits:
⢠You can automatically see your children's health cards in the app until the children are 15 years old.
⢠Your information is automatically updated in the app if, for example, you change address, doctor or get a new last name.
⢠You can block the Health Card app via borger.dk if you lose your mobile phone.
⢠You can call your doctor directly by pressing the doctor's phone number in the app.
To be able to create your health card in the Health Card app, you must:
1. have a residence in Denmark
2. have NemID
3. be in security group 1 or 2.
The health card app has been developed by the Danish Digitization Agency in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, Danish Regions and KL. Read more about the app at: www.digst.dk/it-loesninger/sundhedskort-app.
