Yes. By installing the CodeB Authenticator, CodeB Signator, or CodeB SMS on your mobile device, you can employ the NFC Reader of your smartphone to interact with either your ‘Heilberufsausweis’ (HBA) or ‘Gesundheitskarte’ (eGK). This enables the generation of Qualified Electronic Signatures on PDF files. For an illustrative guide on this process, please refer to the video below demonstrating the use of a German ‘Heilberufsausweis’ (HBA) or ‘Gesundheitskarte’ (eGK).
