A Million New Users in Six Months

Over 6 million Poles have already turned to the mojeIKP application. This number has grown by about a million over the last six months (Już 6 mln osób korzysta z mojeIKP. Co można załatwić bez wizyty w przychodni? - Dziennik.pl – dziennik.pl). The growth is rapid, and digital medical services are increasingly becoming part of patients' everyday affairs.

What Can Be Done in the App

The mobile version of the Internet Patient Account allows you to collect prescriptions and referrals, manage treatment, book appointments, and share medical data with doctors (6 milionów użytkowników aplikacji mojeIKP. Pacjenci coraz częściej z niej korzystają! – ezdrowie.gov.pl (CEZ)). A patient therefore doesn't have to call the facility every time or log in to the website in a browser.

Help for Seniors and Caregivers

The application also makes it possible to care for loved ones, for example by fulfilling e-prescriptions or granting a power of attorney. However, the number of downloads alone doesn't show how widely older people use the app.

A Change for Facilities and Pharmacists

Greater patient activity means that healthcare providers, doctors, and pharmacists increasingly work with data shared by the patients themselves. Patients gain better access to information about their own treatment, and facilities gain another channel of contact.
