The European Health Data Space (EHDS) is a landmark initiative establishing a framework for the secure exchange and use of health data across the EU. By improving access and interoperability, EHDS aims to empower patients, enhance healthcare delivery, and support research and innovation. As the regulation comes into force, stakeholder readiness is crucial; but what about patients – the primary beneficiaries? Why does EHDS matter to them, and are they prepared for this transformation?
In April 2025, The Evidence Base spoke with Milana Trucl, DSL Coordinator, to explore what EHDS means for patients and what is needed to ensure their readiness for its implementation.
