Electronic patient record the storage for your health data

Electronic patient record – the storage for your health data

Simply apply for your BIG direct health electronic patient record (ePA). This is provided to you free of charge. By using the electronic patient file, you always have an overview of your health data. The patient file is your personal digital storage location, like a safe that only you have the key to.

You decide what data you want to add and which people you want to authorize access to. This means you always have your medical documents to hand during treatment appointments and can share them with practices and facilities if necessary. The laborious management of paper documents is now a thing of the past.

The patient file makes your life easier and at the same time relieves the burden on those involved in the healthcare system!
