Shared Medical Record: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use your digital medical history to ensure your healthcare providers always have access to your most important health information.
The Shared Medical Record is a digital system that provides a central storage space for your entire medical history.
Who it's for
This service is available to all citizens. It is designed to be a universal tool for anyone living in France who wants to ensure their medical information is organized and accessible to the professionals treating them.
What you get
You receive a secure digital space for the central storage of your medical history. This system allows for a digital collection of your medical data, ensuring that your health information is not scattered across different clinics or doctors. By having a single, central location for your records, your healthcare providers can access the information they need to provide better care during your appointments or in medical emergencies.
What it costs you
There is no monetary cost to use this digital service. To begin using the system, you will need to go through an activation process. This process requires you to use a temporary code to verify your identity and set up your account.
The catch to know
The most important thing to remember is that the system does not always create itself automatically. To ensure you have a record ready when you need it, you must manually activate it. If you do not take this step, you may find that your medical history is not being centralized as you expected.
