Committee on Data for Healthy Societies presents their policy recommendations:

3 Priorities for an EU Health Data Ecosystem

Executive Summary
Health data is essential to trigger digital innovation and foster disease prevention and care. This comes with unprecedented challenges and opportunities. We call for the EU and its countries to build a data ecosystem able to promote healthy societies by:

1. CONNECTING data infrastructures and fostering digital skills
2. SHARING data for research
3. PROTECTING citizens’ data and promoting data fairness

Two ingredients are essential for making those three pillars steady: EU leadership and coordination and a patient-centric approach.
