Digital Health in the 21st Century – Challenges for the eHealth Competence Centres in Europe

Within the scope of German Presidency of the EU Council, on November 26th, gematik and the German Federal Ministry of Health will host the event Digital Health in the 21st Century – Challenges for the eHealth Competence Centres in Europe.

The event looks into the further development of the European eHealth Digital Service Infrastructure and the intensification of European cooperation in the area of technical standards and best practices.

The main guiding questions for the event are the following:

a) How can we extend our common infrastructural basis for cross-border exchange of health data in Europe?

b) How can national eHealth competence centres best address availability, protection and quality of data on European level?

c) How can we best jointly increase user orientation and hence user acceptance of digital health applications on European level?
