"You can book appointments for documents services or hospitals, see all your medical history or even heritage records"

you must be crazy if you think this is a good idea

It’s very convenient, one of the perks of a totalitarian government with sound IT infrastructure.

I agree that it's very convenient and I use it myself too: much better than going into crowded offices with bureocracy etc.

On the other hand, in case of a breach/hack, it becomes a serious problem.

Turkey has an universal healthcare system, government has to have all that info anyways. You have option to hide specific items from your medical history so not even your doctors can see them. Every access to your records by your doctors are also logged and reported.
