- Be 16 years of age or older,

- Have a valid form of identification,

- Have a compatible smartphone.

ONCE ACTIVATED, YOUR CARTE VITALE APP ALLOWS YOU TO:

- Identify yourself, just like with your Carte Vitale, at your pharmacy, doctor's office, dentist's office, nurse's office, optician's office, etc.,

- View your healthcare expenses incurred with your Carte Vitale app,

- Access your information and that of your beneficiaries: Social Security number, mandatory affiliated organization, as well as other information such as your National Health Identity.

Healthcare professionals are being equipped with the app gradually.

It is therefore advisable to always keep your Carte Vitale with you.

To find out which healthcare professionals accept the app, you can consult the health directory available on the Ameli website: https://annuairesante.ameli.fr

A sign is displayed at participating healthcare professionals' offices. Feel free to show them your Carte Vitale app.

SECURITY AND PROTECTION OF YOUR DATA
