Introduction: Does the term ePA mean anything to you? ePA is the abbreviation for the electronic patient file, which all those with statutory health insurance should automatically receive from 2024. Marco Chwalek explains what the ePA is:
Spokesman: With the electronic patient file, ePA for short, all documents are stored in one place. This should enable medical treatment to be carried out faster and more effectively. In addition, double examinations, for example when changing doctors, can be avoided. Ali Roodsari from the pharmacy magazine “Diabetes Ratgeber” knows what the ePA is and what it includes:

“The ePA is simply your patient file in digital form. It contains things like the findings, doctor’s letters, vaccination card, emergency data, maternity card or medication plan or things like X-rays. And you can also see, for example, which doctors are in the have treated in the past or what medication you have been prescribed.”
Speaker: So the ePA should make our visit to the doctor easier:

“For example, you no longer have to lug your X-rays from one doctor to the next, because they are all stored digitally. The doctors can then simply look them up. They can then, for example, look up what treatments the colleagues have previously carried out or which drugs have already been prescribed. And that should also improve the treatment.”
Speaker: We can also view our health data and also have an influence on the data that is stored:

“With the ePA, you can determine which doctor can access which data. For example, if I go to the psychologist, I can set my dentist not to be able to access the psychological findings.”
Moderation: As I said, from 2024 we should then automatically receive an electronic patient file from the statutory health insurance companies for everyone who wants it, reports the “Diabetes Ratgeber”.
