Access to subscribed resources may be restricted to Council users or to users in subscribing institutions. Many publications are available in Open Access.Since 2003, EU health programmes have generated knowledge and evidence as a basis for informed policymaking and further research.
In spring 2024, the European Parliament and the Council reached a political agreement on the Commission proposal for the European Health Data Space. The EHDS will be a key pillar of the strong European Health Union and is the first common EU data space in a specific area to emerge from the European strategy for data.
The proposed regulation for a EHDS aims to improve individuals’ access to and control over their personal electronic health data, while also enabling certain data to be reused for public interest, policy support, and scientific research purposes. It provides for a health-specific data environment that will help foster a single market for digital health services and products. Currently, cross-border access to health data varies across the EU. The new rules aim to make it possible for a Spanish tourist to pick up a prescription in a German pharmacy, or for doctors to access the health information of a Belgian patient undergoing treatment in Italy.
Trust is a fundamental enabler for the success of the European Health Data Space. EHDS will provide a trustworthy setting for secure access to and processing a wide range of health data.
