About this app

The Danish health insurance card app (‘sundhedskort-app’) is a voluntary digital version of the plastic health insurance card and serves as valid documentation of the right to receive healthcare in Denmark.

This means that you can use your health insurance card app on your mobile phone in locations where you would usually use your physical health insurance card.

Using the health insurance card app on your mobile phone comes with a number of benefits:
• You can automatically see your children's health insurance cards in the app until the children are 15 years old
• Your information is automatically updated in the app if, for example, you change your address, doctor or get a new last name
• You can reset the health insurance card app via lifeindenmark.dk if you lose your mobile phone
• You can call your doctor directly by pressing the doctor's phone number in the app
• You can decide if you want to receive the plastic health insurance card or only use the app

To be able to create your health insurance card in the app, you must:
1. have a permanent place of residence in Denmark
2. have MitID
3. be in health insurance group 1 or 2

The health insurance card app is developed by the Agency for Digital Government in collaboration with the Ministry of the Interior and Health, Danish Regions, and KL – Local Government Denmark.

Ratings and reviews

Took a while to be available outside the Danish Play Store and I even wrote to DigSt about it. It works well on my phone, supports both code and fingerprint unlock. Only downside is that there is no english version available (and that it still uses NemID) but it is still entirely usable. Update: It supports MitID now and works in English. I don't need to remember the yellow card anymore. Super cool, updated to 5 stars. Thanks!

app does not work and blanks after accepting privacy settings. I have had this phone for multiple months and the web browser is initialized. I deleted and downloaded the app, turned on and off my phone. I'm really unsure of what the problem is. Edit. I use chrome.

Thank you for this useful app! I encountered an issue on Android 11. After enabling the Accessibility Menu, I was unable to tap the 'Show' button in the app. In fact, no buttons worked after enabling the Accessibility Menu. I tried clearing the data and cache, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but nothing worked. I ultimately had to disable the Accessibility Menu, and now the app functions properly.
