Estonian Health Insurance Fund (EHIF) Database

The Estonian Health Insurance Fund (EHIF) database is an administrative database containing claims data from Estonian healthcare providers and is financed by the Estonian Health Insurance Fund. It covers information on each medical contact, as well as on prescription medicines, medical devices and benefits for incapacity to work. Since the remuneration of the costs of treatments and prescription medicines is based on the data, the main purpose of the database is to finance healthcare and to monitor contracts.
