In addition, the electronic health card has also been integrated with medical insurance settlement code, payment QR code and other multi-code applications, supporting the financial industry to pay QR code standards, and facilitating residents to enjoy "one-stop" convenient medical services. Through the electronic health card, residents can realize the "one card" for medical treatment between different medical institutions, and at the same time help to promote the "Internet+medical health" service and enhance the convenience and benefit of medical services.
