VTV.vn - As scheduled, Vietnam Social Security will start issuing electronic health insurance cards in place of paper health insurance cards.

The electronic health insurance card will be made of plastic, with the same size of an ATM card.

The card will have a chip that contains all the information on the card holder's health insurance and history of diagnoses and treatments. The health insurance card's authentication mechanism is based on fingerprints and face recognition, so patients do not have to show their ID cards.
