ABSTRACT

In view of the current problems of patients keeping multiple medical treatment cards and the low level of information sharing among different medical institutions, this article attempts to propose some countermeasures and suggestions form the perspective of building a health service platform based on electronic health cards. Based on patients' electronic health card accounts, patients' ID cards, social security cards, medical institution diagnosis and treatment cards, and biological signs (faces, fingerprints) are effectively integrated to optimize the whole process of health management, diagnosis and treatment services and making payment. The result is that the health service platform based on the electronic health cards can greatly facilitate patients to seek medical treatment with less limitation of getting medical treatment from different regions and institutions, and promote the optimal allocation and sharing of medical resources.
