Visit the link below for full informations including the availability of PDF booklets to download in various languages including English. The information is detailed but as regarding access for the individual, this is what is stated:
• Access for Citizens: Access has to be gained through the website of the
health service at which the citizen’s health card is registered.
In both cases, user access is granted after the verification of the identity of the person
trying to gain access (authentication) and that he/she appears in the registry of users,
either as a professional or a citizen who is legitimated to make use of the system
(authorisation). In either case, the responsibility of guaranteeing that each instance of
access to the system meets the requirements lies with regional authority to which the
system’s user is linked, either as a healthcare professional or as a citizen who is duly
registered in the regional authority in question
