Health informatics — Health cards — Numbering system and registration procedure for issuer identifiers
ISO 20302:2014 is designed to confirm, via a numbering system and registration procedure, the identities of both the healthcare application provider and the health card holder in order that information may be exchanged by using cards issued for healthcare services. ISO 20302:2014 focuses on the machine-readable cards of ID-1 type defined in ISO/IEC 7810 that are issued for healthcare services provided in a service area that crosses the national borders of two or more countries/areas. ISO 20302:2014 applies to healthcare data cards where the issuer and the application provider are the same party. ISO 20302:2014 applies directly, or refers, to existing ISO standards for physical characteristics and recording techniques. Security issues follow the requirements of each healthcare data card system. In addition, ISO 20302:2014 regulates the visual information written on the healthcare data card.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. www.iso.org/directives

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any

Introduction
This International Standard describes a numbering system and registration procedure for issue
identifiers of machine-readable cards used in the field of healthcare.
The purpose of using machine-readable cards in the field of healthcare is to improve the quality
of the health service and increase the efficient use of healthcare resources in the field. The primary
consideration in creating this International Standard has been to improve patient service and patient
safety, as well as improve the practical use of healthcare data cards in clinical fields.
The main policy of this International Standard is as follows.
a) ISO/TC215 has agreed to exempt the following items from standardization efforts.
— standardizing the clinical practice of medicine;
— define a standardized healthcare delivery service structure.
In past years healthcare data cards have been used to exchange healthcare data by placing necessary
and appropriate information on the surface of the cards in order to implement the health service of
each country. However, as people now move more frequently across borders, healthcare data cards
issued in one country or area are increasingly being used in another and, with this consideration in
mind, this International Standard has been designed to apply to healthcare data cards that will be used
internationally.
b) This International Standard is applicable to healthcare data cards used for healthcare services
provided by the card issuer. Not only ISO/TC 215, but also ISO/IEC JTC1/SC17 should discuss the
standardization of the characteristics and operation of other cards, which are not covered by this
International Standard.
c) This International Standard is designed to accept relevant technologies and recording techniques
for healthcare data cards.
The data elements and data structures in healthcare data cards are standardized in ISO 21549.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 20302:2014(E)
Health informatics — Health cards — Numbering system
and registration procedure for issuer identifiers
1 Scope
This International Standard is designed to confirm, via a numbering system and registration procedure,
the identities of both the healthcare application provider and the health card holder in order that
information may be exchanged by using cards issued for healthcare services.
This International Standard focuses on the machine-readable cards of ID-1 type defined in ISO/IEC 7810
that are issued for healthcare services provided in a service area that crosses the national borders of
two or more countries/areas.
This International Standard applies to healthcare data cards where the issuer and the application
provider are the same party.
This International Standard applies directly, or refers, to existing ISO standards for physical
characteristics and recording techniques. Security issues follow the requirements of each healthcare
data card system.
In addition, this International Standard regulates the visual information written on the healthcare data
card.
