Patient Empowerment Through The European Health Data Space (EHDS)

At the Pharma 2025 conference in Barcelona, a key topic of discussion was the evolving landscape of European healthcare and patient data. A major focus was the European Health Data Space (EHDS), which is designed to improve the movement and accessibility of health data across Europe. A conversation with Dr. Mohammad Al-Ubaydli of Patients Know Best and Herbert Altmann of Cencora explores how the EHDS represents a significant shift from a provider-centric to a patient-centric model.

While this transition promises to empower individuals and enhance research, it also presents challenges related to building trust, ensuring data security, and engaging all stakeholders. Explore how the EHDS can unlock new opportunities for real-world evidence and drive a more responsive, patient-focused healthcare ecosystem.
