The document "Information paper on the current challenges in legal aspects of cross-border exchange of personal data" is available for consultation

The Work Package 4, which is responsible for generic aspects of EEHRxF recommendation (Electronic Identification implementation; Legal aspects & enablers; and Cybersecurity), developed the “Information paper on the current challenges in legal aspects of cross-border exchange of personal data” document.

The aim of this document is to provide an overview of the identified legislative aspects, challenges, and enablers for cross-border personal data interoperability regarding the current cross-border exchange scenarios, and the planned new domains.

Additionally, it will serve as a baseline for the identification of the next steps that should be undertaken by the EU Member States to improve the cross-border exchange of personal data, data privacy, and data transparency on the national and EU level.

The document is available to download here or under the “Deliverables – Documentation” menu on the X-eHealth official website.

X-eHealth’s purpose is to lay the foundations to advance the integration process of the eHealth services features by developing a common framework for medical imaging, discharge letters, laboratory results and rare diseases.
