DAK ePA 2.3.106

The DAK ePA app is designed to facilitate the potential of the electronic patient file (ePA), serving as a secure key to your medical data and documents, including your electronic prescriptions. This accessibility ensures that essential health information is always at your fingertips, whether you are on the go, at a physician's practice, or during a hospital stay.
