Whether you are a medical doctor or a patient, it could be good to know the smooth process for e-prescriptions via the website Förskrivningskollen.se.
If you are:
- a licensed prescriber who wants to prescribe medication outside of work
- a retired medical doctor
- temporarily between jobs
No matter what you can use your computer to prescribe e-prescriptions via the onlineservice “Förskrivningskollen” from the Swedish eHealth Agency. You identify yourself easily and securely with Freja eID+, also known as Freja eID Plus. In November 2021, “Förskrivningskollen” became available to recreational prescribers and in May 2022, electronic prescribing became the main rule.
Downloading and using Freja on your mobile phone or tablet is completely free of any cost. At the login page for Förskrivningskollen, choose ‘Freja eID Plus’ below the heading “Fritidsförskrivning” and then use your mobile to verify your identity. Now you are ready to prescribe drugs electronically in your free time.
Here is a guide that shows the login process step by step.
What Do I Need to Do to Get Freja eID+?
You must first verify your identity with an ID document in the Freja app.
Then at one occasion, go to an approved Freja agent and bring your mobile and the ID document you used when registering for Freja. The physical meeting happens only once and is a requirement from the government. For security reasons it takes 3 hours for the upgrade to Freja eID+ to happen. You will be notified once it is done.
