Goodbye paperwork
Lost or illegible paper prescriptions are now a thing of the past. From the doctor's prescription to receiving the medication, everything is 100% digital.
Full flexibility
With the e-prescription app, you can determine how the prescription is filled: either in a local pharmacy or in an online pharmacy.
Safe and discreet
Your prescription data is accessible via the prescription code and can only be viewed by you in the app and authorized pharmacies in their system.
An app for (almost) everyone
Anyone with statutory health insurance in Germany can use the e-prescription and this app. Privately insured will follow. The e-prescription has been tested in practice since summer 2021. The e-prescription rollout in Westphalia-Lippe and Schleswig-Holstein will start on September 1, 2022. Outside of the regionally supported e-prescription rollout, the e-prescription can be used nationwide in (dental) medical practices and hospitals to prescribe medicines. Because from September 1, 2022, pharmacies throughout Germany will be able to redeem e-prescriptions and settle accounts with health insurance companies.

How the e-prescription works
If your doctor has prescribed you medication, he has previously printed it out on site. This expression can now be omitted - the recipe is saved on a server. This app is there so that you can conveniently access the recipe.
If you want to retrieve recipes, the server will ask you for your identity. You hold your health card to your smartphone, enter the card's PIN - and you will be granted access to the e-prescription server. Or you identify yourself with the app of your health insurance company. All recipes are then synchronized between app and server.
You can either redeem prescriptions with the prescription code in the local pharmacy. Or send it to pharmacies via the app - for example to reserve the medication, order a courier, or have the medication sent to you.
How secure the e-prescription and the e-prescription app are
Extensive analyzes to be carried out continuously parallel to the development have been agreed with the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). The expert opinions commissioned confirm that the applications meet gematik's security and data protection requirements. There is ongoing coordination with the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI). The source code of the e-prescription systems is published.
