Why wait for wallets?

Start now with smooth onboarding for healthcare services

While the 2026 deadline for the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI) approaches, healthcare organizations must act now to build trusted digital infrastructures that remain inclusive and compliant.

In the healthcare sector, trust is the real currency

Digitalization and telemedicine offer solutions to rising costs and staff shortages, so they require the highest security standards. Decisions in eHealth are indeed a matter of life or death; therefore, identification and data access must be strictly regulated and documented beyond a doubt.

We have created this whitepaper to help eHealth providers see the risks of waiting for the EUDI wallet to fully arrive before acting, and explore clear paths to implement high-security identification methods today.
