A smart card is very versatile and has many uses. In France, for example, smart cards are used as a portable file for kidney patients. Before they used their smart card for a file, kidney patients who need dialyses every 3 or 4 days were not able to leave town. Now the smart card contains details of the last dialyses as well as emergency and prescription information and can be used in all participating hospitals and clinics, allowing the patients to travel outside of their town or area.
