Building trust, ensuring adoption: Innovation for stronger patient-healthcare relationships

The EHDS introduces a new framework for health data access management, requiring all stakeholders to adapt to updated standards. Technical adjustments will be essential to ensure the secure and efficient handling of patient data by healthcare providers, thereby enhancing the speed and quality of care delivery. Patients must also adopt and trust the digital health tools integrated into their healthcare experience. This session will explore how the EHDS fosters innovation in digital health tools that meet regulatory requirements and strengthen the relationship between healthcare providers and patients.
