The European Health Data Space (EHDS) is set to change how health data is accessed, shared, and protected across the EU! 🇪🇺✨
But what does this mean for us?
🔹 More control: primary use for healthcare including access and information rights for prescription, dispensation, medical products and devices and reimbursement services
🔹Taxonomy of secondary use: only certain purposes allowed after primary use for scientific research, public health and policy making with specific prohibitions.
🔹 Right to opt-out: balance between public interest and individual control consisting in the right to opt-out from secondary use (except in public health emergencies).
🔹 Cross-border care: Share your data with healthcare providers across the EU for better continuity of care and dispensations.
🔹 Instant access: View your prescriptions, test results, and medical records for free and anytime.
🔹 Full transparency: See who accessed your data, when, and why – even set up alerts!
This is a huge step forward for patient rights and healthcare innovation!
Stay tuned!
