Use the HIN system

This guide covers the steps to follow when you are healthcare professionals, Infomaniak customers, and wish to comply with the HIN system.

 

Preamble

  • The acronym HIN stands for "Health Insurance Network".
  • A HIN-type 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 them.
  • These addresses are protected by additional security measures to ensure that sensitive information does not fall into the wrong hands.
