The identity layer for healthcare

Secure every touchpoint, from patient care to provider workflows. Verify employees, patients, and providers, then reuse that trusted identity across onboarding, access, account recovery, patient matching, and care delivery.

The trade-off

Fragmented identity creates friction and risk

Across patient, provider, and employee workflows, people need to move between systems without repeatedly proving who they are. When identity verification stops at hiring, registration, or credentialing, that continuity breaks down, leaving organizations to stitch together fragmented records and credentials while fraud slips through the gaps.
Our approach

One identity layer connects the journey

IDMe establishes a high-assurance digital identity that patients, providers, and employees can securely reuse across authorized workflows. The user stays in control of what’s shared and when.

Built for patients and those who take care of them

Connect patients to care and records

A reusable credential with deterministic patient matching ties each person to one record, which opens access and prevents duplicate charts at the source.

Simplify provider workflows

Let providers reuse a verified identity across EHRs, EMRs, e-prescribing, credentialing, claims, and telehealth.

Stop deepfake and imposter employees

Confirm employee identity during hiring, account recovery, and offboarding to reduce fraudulent access and help desk requests.

How it works

For patients

1
Connect patient workflows

Add IDMe to portal enrollment, account recovery, medical-record requests, and patient-matching workflows through APIs and supported integrations.

2
Verify and sign in

New patients establish a high-assurance identity, while returning users sign in with an existing IDMe credential. Layered defenses help legitimate patients through while catching fraud.

3
Share with consent

Patients see what information the organization requests and approve what they share in that interaction.

4
Connect patients to care and records

Verified identity help organizations connect patients to the right account and records, reducing repeated verification and manual review.

For providers

1
Connect provider workflows

Integrate IDMe with provider onboarding, credentialing, EPCS, e-prescribing, claims, and telehealth workflows.

2
Establish a verified identity

Providers complete high-assurance identity verification when registering for NBME exams, then reuse that credential throughout their career.

3
Link identity to credentials

Pair the provider’s verified identity with professional information, such as NPI, DEA registration, state licensure, or exclusions screening.

4
Reuse across authorized workflows

Providers can use the same credential across connected clinical and administrative systems without repeating the full process.

PARTNERS AND INTEGRATIONS

Connected across the healthcare ecosystem

IDMe works with healthcare technology partners and connects to the enterprise systems organizations already use. Through APIs and integrations, IDMe brings identity verification into patient access, health data exchange, provider credentialing, e-prescribing, and workforce workflows.

Frequently asked questions

What is IDMe used for in healthcare?

IDMe is a reusable digital identity layer that healthcare organizations use to verify patients, providers, and employees during high-risk interactions, including hiring, account recovery, patient registration, medical record access, and provider credentialing. Instead of building separate verification for each workflow, organizations accept one IDMe credential across every connected system.

How does IDMe compare to other identity verification solutions?

IDMe brings unmatched scale and reach: About 70% of people accessing a healthcare organization for the first time are already verified and simply reuse a credential they own. For everyone else, IDMe offers multiple verification pathways — self-service, live video chat, and in-person verification — reaching populations automated-only tools often miss, like older adults and rural communities.

Can IDMe support patients who need help verifying online?

Yes. IDMe offers self-service, live video chat (24/7, 240+ languages), and in-person verification at 700+ locations for patients automated-only tools can't reach. Lowest-income users pass automated-only checks at 32%; video chat lifts that to 81%.

How does IDMe work with our IAM, HR, and clinical systems?

IAM and SSO platforms manage authentication and access after an account has been established. IDMe adds identity proofing—helping confirm that the person creating, accessing, or recovering an account is who they claim to be—and works alongside existing systems through APIs and supported integrations.

Does IDMe share patient data with healthcare organizations?

No more than a patient explicitly authorizes. IDMe shows users exactly what verified information an organization is requesting and requires their consent before sharing it, limiting each exchange to only the information required for that specific interaction.
