Welcome to the United Nations
ePrescription and eSick are national digital services that are very helpful during the COVID-19 pandemic. These services help avoid unnecessary “face-to-face” contact between patients and health care providers, while enabling collection of relevant data to adjust policies and plan timely responses. eSick solutions connect employers, health carer providers and the Czech Social Security Administration. Employers access employees’ sickness reporting directly from the electronic portal of the Czech Social Security Administration. Employees receive their sickness benefit automatically; they only have to inform their office on a sick day by phone or email. Amid COVID-19 pandemic, the eSick note is used for citizens under quarantine. In this way, authorized institutions have real-time information about the development of their illness.
