Abstract: This article aims at presenting the provisions of eIDAS regulation and the related implementing acts along with the work of the eSENS project, regarding the cross - border identification of a patient, using the infrastructure foreseen in the eIDAS and in the Directive 2011/24/EU. The Patient Identifier is crucial information that is needed for Health Care Services, and currently, the eIDAS has no explicit provision for that. The work in the eSENS project depicted that this information can be transferred through the eIDAS infrastructure and the National Contact Point (NCP) from country to country, exploiting eIDAS node specification for additional attributes to transfer the patient identifier information. In addition to that, the aggregation of patient's identifier attribute with the eID attributes was done either using a national method or reusing a functionality that was developed in STORK2 project. The eSENS plugin software module allowed STORK2 infrastructure to interoperate with eIDAS. The results of the eSENS Health Care pilot from Greece and Austria are also being analyzed.
