My Health Bank Introduction

• What is My Health Bank?

  My Health Bank is an online system that empowers the insured to check their medical information at any time, and allows users to monitor and manage their own health. It also serves as a reference while paying a visit to a doctor, so as to improve the quality of medical care.

      My Health Bank became officially operational on the NHIA website on September 25, 2014. With a Citizen Digital Certificate or a registered NHI card, upon authentication of one’s identity, the health information may be accessed on or downloaded from My Health Bank.

      In July 2016, My Health Bank was comprehensively revised with data visualization, additional external health education links, and extended scope of data in order to enhance the accessibility and user-friendliness of My Health Bank.
