Proposals to empower people across the EU to control and use data held on their own health were announced today by the European Commission. The proposed European Health Data Space will enable people to have immediate and easy access to data held on their health in electronic form.
Under the proposals, Europeans will be able to share their health data with other medical professionals across the EU to get the best possible care. They’ll also be able to add information, rectify wrong data, restrict access to others and obtain information on how their data are used and for what purposes.
The Vice-President of the European Commission, Margaritis Schinas today described the proposed European Health Data Space as revolutionary and the first of its kind in the world.
