Patient:inside:
The registration can be done directly in the practice or by self-registration. If you only want to participate in a video consultation without registering, you can use the TAN procedure.
Registration by practice: The practitioner can enter your data into the video consultation platform and thus create a profile for you. Here, a mail address, a user name and an initial password are required, so that you will receive a registration confirmation to this mail address in the next step. When you log in for the first time, you can change the initial password.
Self-registration: Use the link or the QR code to get to the registration page for Smart Practice. In both cases, you will be taken to an input screen where you enter the appropriate data. When you have completed this, you will receive an email with a link to confirm your registration. Click on this link to confirm the registration and log in with the user name and password you have previously specified.
Participation with TAN: You can also participate in the video consultation without registering. To do this, the treating physician only needs your e-mail address. An invitation link and a one-time registration code will then be sent to this e-mail address. Click on the link and select the “Registration with TAN” field on the login page.
