In the future, if they wish, citizens will be able to share the wellbeing data that they have saved in the Kanta PHR with social welfare and health care professionals.
Preparation of the requirements for professional use and professional applications will proceed with the entry into force of the new Act on the Electronic Processing of Client Data in Health Care and Social Welfare. Pursuant to the new Client Data Act, the transition period is set to end on 1 January 2026, by which time the Kanta Services must have the capability to make wellbeing data from the Kanta PHR available to social welfare and health care service providers.
Functionalities for healthcare and social welfare professionals
In order for a social welfare or health care provider to view information stored by a citizen in the Kanta PHR, the provider must have:
- the citizen’s consent
- a treatment relationship or context for processing
- access to a professional application approved for the Kanta PHR.
