**“Hello. Today we talk about the E-Card. …

Many people know it is important, …

but not what it really does. …

The E-Card shows that you are insured. …

You should take it with you to every doctor visit …

and also to the pharmacy. …

Then your treatment can be billed directly. …

The doctor can create your prescription digitally. …

The pharmacy can then access it. …

You do not need papers or confirmations anymore. …

Many people think that medical information is stored on the

E-Card. …

This is not true. …

There are no diagnoses, … no test results, … and no doctor visits on the card.

…

The E-Card only opens the system …

so the doctor can see if you are insured …

and which insurance you have. …

The card must not be given away, …

not lent, …

and not copied. …

If you cannot go to the pharmacy yourself, …

a trusted person can pick up your medicines. …

Please ask the pharmacy first …

which rules they have. …

Keep the E-Card in a fixed place …

so you do not forget it. …

If it is lost, it can be blocked and replaced …

with one phone call to your insurance. …

If you do not understand something, …

ask in the doctor’s office or in the pharmacy. …

They are happy to help. …

The E-Card makes many things easier. …

This information supports everyday life …
and does not replace medical advice.”**
