Health identity & interoperability

Your Health ID. Your health record. Connected across healthcare.

A patient carries one verified identity and one longitudinal record. Facilities exchange what they are authorised to exchange — through the systems they already run.

OpesCare connects health systems. It does not require every facility to use the same software.

English and French throughout HL7 FHIR R4 Consent on every exchange

Healthcare is fragmented.

A patient moves between hospitals, clinics, laboratories and pharmacies. Their medical information does not move with them.

Fragmented patient identity

The same person is a different patient at every facility. Nothing links those records back to one human being.

Disconnected health records

Each system holds a fragment. Nobody holds the history, so care gets decided from a partial view.

Delayed access to critical information

Allergies, current medication and recent results arrive after the decision that needed them — or never arrive at all.

Poor visibility and continuity

A patient cannot see who opened their record or why, and the next clinician starts again from nothing.

One identity, one record, exchanged under consent.

Five layers, in order. Each one is only possible because of the one before it.

  1. Health ID

    A portable, verified identity the patient owns and carries between facilities.

  2. Patient Index

    The same person resolved to one record across systems — matched deliberately, never merged on a guess.

  3. Trust & Access

    Who may see what, for what purpose, for how long — decided by the patient and recorded every time.

  4. Interoperability

    Standards-based exchange with the systems a facility already runs. No replacement, no rip-out.

  5. Connected Care

    The clinician in front of the patient has the history that patient's care depends on.

How information moves

From an existing hospital system, through OpesCare, to another authorised system — and back again.

  1. 1

    Identify

    The patient is resolved to their Health ID — by QR code, identifier or verified lookup.

  2. 2

    Match

    That identity is matched against the patient index. An uncertain match goes to human review, never a silent merge.

  3. 3

    Authorize

    The requesting facility asks for the scope it needs. The patient approves, denies, or revokes later.

  4. 4

    Exchange

    Only the approved scope crosses, in a standard format the receiving system can already read.

  5. 5

    Record

    The exchange is written to the patient's timeline and to an audit trail neither side can quietly edit.

What OpesCare gives the ecosystem

Five capabilities. Everything else on this platform is built out of them.

  • Laboratory orders and verified results, linked to the patient record. Learn more
  • Prescriptions and dispensing, connected to the patient's medication history. Learn more
  • Insurance coverage as an attribute of the Health ID — read-only, and it travels with the patient. Learn more

Network services

Two things a patient needs to find urgently, answered by the network instead of by phoning around.

Availability is published by the facility that holds it and timestamped. It is information to act on, not a reservation.

Who connects to OpesCare

Everyone in the patient's journey, each through the surface that fits them.

Patients stay in control.

Access is a decision, not a default. Before a facility sees anything, the patient is told exactly what is being asked for — and can refuse, or change their mind later.

How consent works
When normal access isn't possible

Break-glass access opens a limited emergency profile — identity, blood group, allergies, active conditions and an emergency contact. It requires a stated reason, alerts the patient, and is reviewed afterwards.
