The EHDS regulation inevitably contained some blind spots in the face of the complexity of Europe’s healthcare delivery. They are now emerging and causing pain points for implementers. The session will feature perspectives from healthcare providers, industry and Member States, and discuss policy recommendations to ensure a successful EHDS implementation.

A working paper on "The EHDS regulation of EHR systems: Blind spots and pain points, and how to address them" will lie at the heart of this session. 

It will offer you the opportunity to: 

• Influence EHDS implementation: Ensure real-world healthcare and innovation needs are reflected in practice.
• Bring practice to policy: Help make the regulation more realistic, sustainable, and workable.
• Contribute to stability and innovation: Flag risks that can arise from over-ambitious timelines and unclear requirements.
• Strengthen EHTEL’s collective voice: Contribute to a united position that amplifies EHTEL's influence in European digital health policy.
