CEI in Bistrița-Năsăud County: institutional responses

What the document contains

Summary of the institutions’ responses

CAS Bistrița-Năsăud and the hospitals in Bistrița and Năsăud report no healthcare validations using the electronic identity card (CEI) for 12 February–11 August 2026. The hospital in Năsăud reports 21 compatible, working readers, but this does not amount to actual validation in the health insurance system.

Bistrița Mayor’s Office reports 50 configured readers in use, while the employment agency, AJOFM, reports six readers, with handover documents provided subsequently. The social payments agency, AJPIS, mentions one reader purchased, without separate usage statistics. The Cadastre Office reports working equipment but cannot quantify CEI use separately. The Pension House, which has no readers of its own, describes checks through records, inter-institutional data exchanges or documents presented by the holder. Equipment provision must therefore be distinguished from documented use.

The School Inspectorate records five instances of identification using the CEI for declarations of assets and interests, with paper documents. Sângeorz-Băi Mayor’s Office replied on 17 September that it has no readers and that people present proof of domicile on their phones or in print. The Veterinary and Food Safety Directorate (DSVSA) describes using RoCEIReader and evidence presented by holders.

The regional response from the Cluj-Napoca Regional General Directorate of Public Finance describes data exchange with the population records service and the absence of readers within the directorate.

The county population records service states that it does not hold the local services’ records on certificates. The prefecture states that the information system does not allow statistics by type of identity document. An absence of statistics cannot be treated as zero cases.

Summary of FEW’s initiative

In Bistrița-Năsăud, FEW requested data on CEI use when dealing with institutions, not beneficiaries’ personal data. It requested procedures and information on transactions carried out, equipment, verification of domicile, additional documents required, incidents and inspections. For hospitals and CAS, the questions distinguish healthcare validations from patient identification. The county population records service was asked for information on institutional access to the register, data exchanges and certificates of domicile. The aim is to distinguish reported capabilities from documented use.

The initiative also concerns the holder’s right to use the signature associated with the CEI. Documents signed using the advanced electronic signature certificate issued by MAI have the same legal effect as documents signed by hand, under OUG No. 97/2005, Article 17¹(1)(a) and (1¹). Their acceptance must not be confused with authentication on a portal or merely reading domicile data.

In the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), Component 7, Investment 8, the milestones relating to the CEI concern the issue of documents and access to 11 online public services, according to the revised PNRR annex, milestones 173–174, pp. 107–108.
