Germany's healthcare sector will introduce its own ID wallet called "Sectoral IDP" for all statutorily insured persons on 01.01.2024. The issuers of the wallet are the health insurance companies, and approval will be granted in accordance with the extensive specifications of gematik (the regulatory authority). The ID attributes are issued by 2 issuers: PID and health insurer. The sectoral IDP is based on the OpenID Connect (core and Federation), Open Authorization 2.0 (OAuth 2) and JSON Web Token (JWT) standards. The presentation will describe the specific gematik requirements for product and operations of the ID wallet as well as their possible implementation. Despite the closed system in eHealth (Telematics Infrastructure) by definition, bridges to developments of ID wallets outside the sector such as EU, AML and eIDAS will be shown.
