National Health Care Identification Card:
The bill explicitly states that in order for any individual to be eligible for a health insurance plan and health claim status, they will be issued a machine readable national health identification card. * All operating rules set forth in the bill for health plan and claim eligibility must allow for the use of this ID card.

“ELIGIBILITY FOR A HEALTH
PLAN AND HEALTH CLAIM STATUS.
—The set of operating rules for eligibility for a
health plan and health claim status transactions shall be adopted not later than
July 1, 2011, in a manner ensuring that such operating rules are effective not later
than January 1, 2013, and may allow for the use of a machine readable identification card.”

This national health identification card is similar to the Danish national health ID card. It’s just another little trick the federal government will use to render the population manageable.
