The first week's assessment is very encouraging: 150,000 new downloads. Marguerite Cazeneuve, delegated director of health insurance, confirmed it during a visit to Bfmtv. In all, 850,000 people have already activated their dematerialized vital card since the start of the experiment.
The demaotarialized vital card pleases users
To access the service, you need a national electronic identity card in a bank card format. This condition is explained by the need to first connect to the France Identity application, which serves as a secure gateway.
The dematerialized vital card has several advantages. First, the end of the constraint of carrying his physical card during consultations. Security is also reinforced since Marguerite Cazeneuve explains that“From the moment you record it with your identity card and you have to activate it each time with a code, we are really sure that it is behind your vital card”. The government promises to fight fraud with this modern solution.
Health insurance does not stop there. Improvements are planned with the integration of new services. By 2026, the application will bring together information relating to complementary health. Users will access all of their rights in the same place without juggling between the vital card and the mutual card.
