Benefits
Bell ID's system for managing cards, applications and keys is modular, highly flexible and truly scalable, and provides a variety of benefits for the healthcare industry:
-
Make significant cost savings
Issuing multiple badges, security tokens and parking permits etc per person can be costly. By giving everyone just one smart card, you can reduce material and administrative costs. You can also offer added value services such as e-vending using contactless payment technology. -
Improve security
Bell ID's platform will enable you to achieve high levels of security. In particular, it will help you to maintain the privacy of patients' records and control access to services. It manages the complete lifecycle of certificates, including expiration and renewal, and can manage several certificates simultaneously. -
Increase convenience for patients
With a self-service centre and the option for post-issuance personalisation, Bell ID's system enables cardholders to download certificates and applications from remote terminals or their own PC. It also supports e-prescriptions. -
Reduce bureaucracy
The Bell ID platform facilitates decentralisation of the card issuance process and the connecting of several healthcare host systems. This means that several insurance companies, regional government bodies and other organisations can issue cards in their own way, with their own applications, but with access rights to one unified card management system. -
Establish consistency and transparency
Bell ID's solution ensures that information is consistent across all the databases that it links to. This includes providing a complete audit trail that tracks card applications, issuance, updates, expiration and revocation.
