Use the HIN system

Update 08/03/2026

This guide outlines the steps to follow if you are a healthcare professional, an Infomaniak customer, and wish to comply with the HIN system.

 

Introduction

  • The acronym HIN stands for "Health Insurance Network".
  • An HIN email address is an address used to send confidential and sensitive messages, such as medical records or test results, between healthcare professionals who have been authorized to use it.
  • These addresses are protected by additional security measures to ensure that sensitive information does not fall into the wrong hands.
