Smart Health Cards
summary
Smart Health Cards encode a compressed, signed JSON Web Signature that wraps a W3C Verifiable Credentials payload containing a constrained FHIR bundle (patient + clinical resources) so a single v2 QR or .smart-health-card file proves lab or immunization data. Tooling includes an issuance operation over SMART on FHIR, a developer issuer portal, a verifier portal, a simple wallet demo, and a validation SDK. Production pilots include Quebec and vendor pilots with Epic, Cerner, Apple iOS support and major pharmacies; name+DOB is the chosen minimal identity binding.
