E-health

Estonian advanced e-health infrastructure has proven especially useful during crisis. As 99% prescriptions issued in Estonia are digital, the need to show up at the doctor’s office is brought to minimum. Patient can use these digital prescriptions in any pharmacy in Estonia, just by providing their national ID card to the pharmacist. If a face-to-face meeting is still needed, then multiple telemedicine solutions are available.

As with COVID-19 spreading, many people need to take sick leave from work. However, going to doctor’s office for this reason could spread the virus in hospitals even more and put medical workers in unnecessary risk. That is why central e-health agency launched a new service that allows people to initiate sick/care leave online themselves through the national patient portal.
