The ANS conducted a study on telehealth in France, based on 14 practices covering 11 specialties. These are: 

• nephrology, geriatrics, cardiology, orthopedics/traumatology, anethesia, psychiatry, gerontopsychiatry (teleconsultation practices);
• neuropediatrics, dermatology, maxillofacial surgery (tele-expertise practices);
• ophthalmology, medical and surgical neurology, tele-radiology, chronic wounds treatment (multi-act practices).

These practices are presented as fact sheets in the document below “Restitution des cas d’usage en télémédecine”

The open access data is free to download. However, the user must be mindful of the General Conditions when working with the Health Pro Directory information.

All the resources for funding are available in our Ségur section for digital equipment.

For your application to be complete, you need to include several credentials and documents.

The list of documents and credentials needed is detailed in the Application form (download it below). You will need to send and application for each product you wish to label.

You must return your application form with all the supporting material by email AND via postal services:

1. the complete application form needs to be sent by mail to:

   Agence du numérique en santé (ANS)
   Labellisation logiciel Maisons et Centres de Santé
   9, rue Georges Pitard
   75015 Paris

2. follow up with sending digital versions (PDF scans) of the agreement and its annexes, in two copies, signed and completed to:

   labellisation.msp@esante.gouv.fr

It is compulsory to have an individual CPx-type card to log in to the INSi teleservice. Three types of cards are supported: CPS, CPE, CPF. 

The update frequency depends on the source of the data. Data is updated daily when it comes from entities such as: national councils for the Ordres, the army health service, the FINESS directory, the CPx card information system; the MSSanté information system. Data coming from regional health agencies is updated on a weekly basis.

CPx cards issued before December 2020 have a contactless chip that prevents from overwriting its code.

The new CPS R3V3 cards that are now in circulation have a Mifare Desfire chip. These cards can stock crypto-secret keys that work with the Mifare Desfire protocol.

All the information about this feature is available in the Manual to deploy contactless CPx cards (available to download below). One must be cautious about the data inserted in the chip’s writing code.

We strongly advise against using this section of the chip to stock access rights. The ANS recommends you to use the ANSSI guidelines on using a "transparent" reader in connected mode. This does not involve a cryptographic protocol during a badge authentication – only the UTL (logic treatment unit) takes part in the cryptographic protocol.

ANSSI advises against setting up a “smart” badge allowing a double authentication breaking from the UTL.

All the recommendations on securing systems for physical access and video projection are available in the document below, "Recommendations on securing systems for physical and video projection access".

When your software gets the label attribution, the successful candidate will receive by email the visual elements you will need to communicate about it.

The editor of the solution (or the solution range) will receive the label after signing the agreement with the ANS. They will be able to use the label on commercial publications, technical documents, with no particular restriction on the type of format used (paper, Internet, intranet, etc.) 
The recipient must mention the level of the label (1 or 2) they obtained. These specifications are set out in the Functional referential (in our Documentation section)

This midware allows the interfacing between computer applications, such as the Vivoptim doctors portal and the CPS card.
