The EHDS is a major game-changer, that will directly affect stakeholders at different levels, ranging from public and private institutions, hospitals to general practitioners, patients and citizens. Thereby, bridging between European politics, national politics and all these stakeholders is a major challenge.
The success of the implementation of the EHDS for secondary use will not only depend on the functioning of the health data access body (HDAB), but merely on how the HDAB will be imbedded in a national, collaborative structure. In addition, the collaboration with the information security committee (ISC) as a permitting entity, the designation of trusted data holders and the development of hospital data networks as health data intermediation entities are under preparation, but will need to be formalized further. Although we are well on our way, we can learn a lot from other Member States.
