DIPAT

DIPAT is Germany's first online medical service for effective living wills. Through an online interview, DIPAT users can independently create, store and regularly update individual preventive care documents online. For the health card, they receive a signal sticker with a retrieval code that catches the eye of medical personnel in an emergency. When the living will is retrieved, DIPAT automatically notifies the deposited contact persons immediately by SMS and e-mail. DIPAT thus closes a serious healthcare gap in Germany: More than 90% of previous living wills are proven to be ineffective because they are too inaccurate, too late on site or too old. Since its launch in January 2016, DIPAT has convinced more than ten thousand users as well as the media, politics, medical specialist groups and health insurance funds of the effectiveness of its services. For the future, DIPAT plans further cooperations with health insurance companies, the provision of its services on the international health market and the expansion of its product portfolio.
