HSE Health App - access to personal health information and services

The HSE Health App is a secure way for patients to manage their health details and find trusted service information on their phone.

Launched in February 2025, the app allows users to:

• carry a list of medications they have added themselves and see medicines received through the Drugs Payment or Medical Card Schemes
• store digital versions of health scheme cards such as the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), medical card, Long-Term Illness (LTI) card, Drugs Payment Scheme (DPS) card and GP Visit card
• access flu and COVID-19 vaccination records
• find information about HSE services such as Emergency Departments and Injury Units
• view any scheduled maternity appointments

The app is built on the principles of usability, accessibility and public trust. It’s designed to help the public engage more easily with HSE services and access important health details.

What we're working on now

We continue to develop new features for the app. This work is guided by data and in-depth research to ensure it meets technical standards and supports real user needs in everyday care.

We’re currently working on:

• hospital and screening appointment information for public patients
• notifications and alerts for upcoming appointments
• referral and waiting time information
• self-care information and support services such as Quit and Maternity Care
