In July 2029, María travels from Pamplona to Paris and suffers an accident requiring hospitalization. The medical team treating her needs to consult her medical history, allergies, and current medications. This information is distributed among various healthcare providers in Spain.
How will the medical team be able to access this data? Where will it be stored? How will it be exchanged between countries? And, above all, what will each healthcare organization have to have done beforehand to make this possible?
The European Health Data Space (EHDS) establishes a new framework for the exchange and access of health data in the European Union, with progressive implementation obligations from 2029 and the incorporation of new data categories until 2031.
For hospitals, clinics, laboratories, diagnostic centers and other healthcare providers, this scenario presents a challenge that goes beyond regulatory compliance: preparing their data, information systems and governance models to ensure their availability, interoperability and use in accordance with the Regulation's requirements.
In this webinar, which we will hold on October 15th at 4:00 PM, through a practical use case, we will analyze what the EHDS implies for healthcare organizations, what the main milestones of its application are, and how to start building an adaptation roadmap.
What will we cover during the session?
- The main requirements established by the EHDS Regulation and their impact on healthcare organizations.
- The implementation schedule and planned milestones up to 2029 and 2031.
- The priority data categories in the first phase and their implications for different healthcare providers.
- The challenges of adapting information systems, interoperability, and managing historical data.
- The importance of knowing where the data is located, how it is structured, and to what extent it can be exchanged.
- The organizational dimensions involved in adaptation, from data governance to information systems.
- How to conduct an initial readiness assessment and define a roadmap to prioritize actions.
A session to understand what the EHDS requires, identify the main adaptation challenges and know where to start preparing your organization.
