A government-issued ID is a credential that allows a facility to verify a healthcare professional’s identity, name, age, address, and origin. Approved forms of government-issued IDs typically include driver's licenses, non-driver photo IDs, passports, passport cards, military ID cards, military dependent's ID cards, and tribal cards. It is extremely important to verify a healthcare professional’s identity to ensure the individual matches their license and other credentials. An ID can also be used within a healthcare facility to gain access to certain spaces or services. This requirement is for the security of patients, other staff members, and facilities themselves. Additionally, it grants professional recognition. Having it at all times might be a requirement in some healthcare facilities. Some platforms allow facilities to verify healthcare licenses through government-issued IDs.
