The Digital Professional Identity for physicians, an ambitious initiative launched within the European Union (EU), aims to provide citizens, organisations, and businesses with a secure and universal method to access both public and private services online and offline across all EU member states.

This initiative will serve as a tool for medical professionals to authenticate their identity and professional status securely and accurately in any online environment. It will be achieved through a verifiable electronic credential issued by the legitimate source of information. With this credential, the physician can share their identity with anyone, whenever needed, legally demonstrating that they are who they claim to be and that they are a registered physician authorised to practice medicine.
