Munich, October 21, 2024 -
CHERRY Digital Health, a subsidiary of Cherry SE, has reached a significant milestone on its path to market leadership in the field of eHealth solutions: gematik has officially granted product approval for the eHealth-CardLink procedure, which is an integral part of the CHERRY SmartLink solution. This innovative technology enables the secure redemption of e-prescriptions via NFC-enabled smartphones. Users simply hold their electronic health card (eGK) to their smartphone to order prescriptions online or reserve them at a pharmacy.

With this approval, CHERRY Digital Health strengthens its position as a leading provider in the digitalization of the healthcare sector. Gerrit Schick, Managing Director of CHERRY Digital Health, explains: "The gematik approval is a significant vote of confidence in the quality and security of our CHERRY SmartLink solution. We are well on our way to a successful market entry with our partners and to making a crucial contribution to the digital transformation of healthcare."

Oliver Kaltner, CEO of Cherry SE, adds:“Germany is undoubtedly lagging in terms of digitalization, particularly in administration and the medical sector. Industry must take responsibility and consistently bring solution systems and offerings to the market. CHERRY is demonstrating this commitment by actively shaping the digitalization of the medical sector with SmartLink.”

CHERRY is currently working on obtaining provider approval, another crucial step toward market introduction. This positions the company as a strong partner for future services in the telematics infrastructure (TI). CHERRY is already closely collaborating with Awesome Technologies to introduce their innovative TI Messenger in Germany. This solution will soon enable all healthcare stakeholders to communicate in real-time and securely exchange inquiries about medications or lab results. Further digital innovations are already in CHERRY's pipeline.
