On 7 September 2009 the National Health Portal -sundhed.dk- and the portal for government services to citizens -borger.dk- signed a cooperation agreement for developing a health section on borger.dk and for coordinating strategy and IT development.
The Health section on borger.dk will provide insight on health matters and will provide citizens with extra privileges and access to the digital portal for health care. Citizens will also have access to their personal health data from the "My sundhed.dk" through borger.dk's My Side. My sundhed.dk currently offers access to organ donor registration and personal data, for example, My Medication Profile, My hospital treatments and My e-Journal.
In the light of this cooperation, the Head of IT and Telecom Agency, Natascha Dexter said that they were looking forward to expanding the common public health work and were pleased that it will soon be possible to offer citizens a single point of access to personal health data, promoting at the same time their engagement with the public.
Morten Elbæk Petersen, the director of sundhed.dk noted that the portal will continue in its current form with the full package of information and self-service for both citizens and health professionals. He added that they see cooperation with borger.dk as a way to attract more people to the self-service solutions of the evolved health care system. He is also glad that through NemLogin (EasyLogin), citizens will only need to log in once and be able to navigate across portals at their ease.
