ABB name: eira:PatientIdentityResolution
Synonym: Cross-Border Patient Identity Matching Service
Example: The Patient Identity Resolution service matches a patient's eIDAS-asserted identity attributes against a target Member State's patient identifier registry to locate the correct health record for a cross-border access request.
Interoperability Saliency: Salient for technical interoperability because it standardises cross-border patient identity matching, addressing the absence of a single pan-European patient identifier.
Interoperability Dimension: Structural IoP
