Please vote to support a joint response of the European Lung Health Group to a public consultation on the reuse of your health data.
ELF invites you to support a joint response of the European Lung Health Group (ELHG) to an ongoing citizen consultation on the reuse of health data. This consultation is run within the EU Joint Action – Towards a European Health Data Space (TEHDAS) initiative of the European Commission. The TEHDAS project develops European principles for the secondary use of health data. At the moment your health data is mainly gathered and shared among health professionals to provide you with the best care and treatment.
