Abstract

The aim of this contribution is to present the project “Mobile e-Card” which demonstrates the concept for a realization of an eHealth service on a smartphone, based on an existing secure identity used in Austria. By building a demonstrator on the existing ID infrastructure of the Austrian Health ID Card it will be shown how a mobile application can be user-friendly and safe. It also indicates how existing functionalities from the Austrian Health ID Card could be adapted into potential functionalities for a mobile smartphone application, to be used by involved stakeholders of the health care system in Austria. Basic use cases of this application will be presented as “show cases”, as well as the technical concept of this mobile application.
