You can authorise another person to act on your behalf in Maisa. For example, an elderly person can give authorisation to a family member, and parents and guardians can use Maisa on behalf of a child under the age of 18.

You can give the authorisation to another person either directly via Maisa or by bringing a power of attorney to a service point of the City of Helsinki Social Services and Health Care Division.

Power of attorney in DOCX format:

• Sähköisen asioinnin käytön sopimus/suostumus (docx, in Finnish)
• Avtal/samtycke om användning av e-tjänsterna  (docx, in Swedish)
• Agreement/permission for use of e-services (docx, in English)

Scope of the authorisation to act on another person’s behalf

The person giving the authorisation can decide how far the right to act on their behalf extends.

• Full rights: The representative has the same rights and access to all of the same information as the authorising person.
• Appointments and messages: The representative has limited rights to act on the authorising person’s behalf. The representative cannot access the authorising person’s diagnoses or list of medications, for example, but they can book appointments and send messages on the authorising person’s behalf.
• Read-only access: The representative can view all of the information but cannot book appointments or send messages.
