Project summary:
The European Health Data Space aims to harmonise the secondary use of health data by creating a common legal framework. Efforts both at Member State level and the EU level are needed to ensure an aligned path on the common measures for EHDS implementation. TEHDAS2 brings together the best current knowledge from 66 organisations and 29 European countries to develop guidelines and technical specifications for common use by all Members States and the European Commission. The main aim of the joint action is to prepare ground for harmonised implementation of the EHDS on secondary use of health data and develop collaboration between all key stakeholders. TEHDAS2 will provide 20 guidelines and technical specifications which will guide Member States and the Commission in developing solutions and operationalising cross-border collaboration. TEHDAS2 results will guide the Health Data Access Bodies in their future tasks and obligations, as well as data holders and users in fulfilling their forthcoming duties in the proposed regulation. The results will address, inter alia, the discovery and description of datasets; advancing access to health data by key players along the health data lifecycle; a technical framework for secure processing environments; involving citizens; and creating operational and collaboration models for the common policies. TEHDAS2 builds on earlier projects, in particular the first Joint Action Towards the European Health Data Space (TEHDAS) and HealthData@EU, and it will work closely with relevant ongoing projects and initiatives to create complementarities and synergies. TEHDAS2 results will be relevant to all EU Member States, and a broad outreach will be achieved through active communication and disseminaThe Joint Action brings together the best knowledge to develop in active cooperation guidelines and technical specifications for the common use by all Members States and the Commission towards implementing the EHDS on secondary use of health data.
