The National Health Insurance (NHI) cards and system helped a lot in pandemic prevention like tracing travel history and distributing the amount of medical mask etc.
Since the NHI Administration began issuing NHI Cards in 2004, medical personnel have been able to obtain diagnostic data of those seeking treatment simply by accessing the card.
Based on these strong foundations, the NHI Administration has begun to develop its “Virtual NHI Card” system. Once completed, it will be able to improve home healthcare and rural medical services, while making access to medical records faster and safer. In the future, people in Taiwan will have the option to use a virtual NHI Card instead of a physical one.
