Issues such as lack of resources,high costs and inefficiency face not only the healthcare system but theSwedish society as a whole. A literature study as well as interviews andobservations on five different public hospitals stand as basis for a prototype of apossible solution implementing the technology. By evaluating and discussing theresults, an assessment of the future of encrypted NFC in Swedish healthcare isdone. It is concluded that the properties of the technology in combination with thegovernmental goals and the optimistic approach of patients and visitors bring fortha promising outset for implementation of encrypted NFC in Swedish healthcare.
