Readiness for the EHDS in the Northern Nordics - Project Reflections
In this panel discussion, host Casandra Grundstrom engages with 5 researchers part of a project on assessing the Nordic readiness for the upcoming European Health Data Spaces (EHDS) regulation. As part of the Nordic Health Data Spaces (NHDS) project, we unpack the intentions of the upcoming regulation, and what this means for different stakeholders to navigate a complex policy landscape. We reflect on the technical feasibility of achieving the ambitions of the EHDS and under what conditions value can be realized beyond a portable patient. Finally, we discuss how education can act as an antidote for readiness to the EHDS and present the project-developed MOOC (Massive Open Online Course). The course is free and open to all to take, and takes the learner through the potential of the EHDS in transforming healthcare, research, and digital health.
