What is the GIE SESAM-Vitale?
SESAM-Vitale is an economic interest grouping at the heart of secure exchanges between healthcare professionals and facilities and compulsory and supplemental health insurance organisations.
An expert in Information Systems for Healthcare Professionals, it participates in work to study exchanges using new digital services and to make them secure, facilitates the deployment of innovative solutions by supporting the community of software publishers, and ensures their proper integration into health professionals’ information systems.
