For healthcare institutions striving for efficiency and modernization, the Polis system has become an integral part of daily operations. This comprehensive platform for managing administrative and clinical processes is now enhanced with a new functionality—Elpako Biometric Signature. This solution enables document signing on a tablet using a graphometric signature, significantly improving operational efficiency, patient service, and data security.

The Smart Country Convention (SCCON) 2024, held in Berlin from October 15 to 17, gathered public sector leaders, IT providers, and industry experts from across Germany to advance the future of digitalization through innovation and efficiency. Participants connected and explored the technological trends shaping digital transformation, and Elpako presented its Biometric Signature solution—a streamlined, resource-saving tool for customer service. Business Development Manager Rokas Jašinskas shared his insights into Germany’s digital landscape, highlighting both emerging opportunities and ongoing challenges, as well as Elpako’s commitment to this journey.

Have you ever had to quickly sign paper documents while an impatient line of people formed behind you? This scenario is all too familiar – outdated and inefficient document management processes slow down customer service and reduce satisfaction. Despite efforts toward modernization and investments in digital solutions, many organizations still rely on “paper signatures.”

In today's fast-paced business world, staying competitive and efficient requires embracing digital transformation. A key aspect of this transformation is the digital management of documents—from creation to final signing. This process not only eliminates the need for paper documents but also significantly saves time and costs for companies.

Qualified electronic signatures and biometric signatures are two cutting-edge technologies that offer high levels of security and ease of use. In this article, I, Rokas Jašinskas, would like to share my insights on the benefits, differences, and suitability of these technologies for various business needs.

Many companies have adopted digital document management processes but still face challenges with handling paper documents. Despite progress, some companies continue to collect client signatures using traditional methods.

The eIDAS Regulation is a regulation adopted on 1 July 2016, which entered into force in 28 EU countries, replacing the previously applicable Directive on a Community framework for electronic signatures. This document, which is relevant to both private individuals and businesses, defines the concepts of electronic signatures and other trust services and the procedures for their use in the EU countries.
