EHDS Article 12. Health professional access services
- For the provision of healthcare, Member States shall ensure that health professionals are able to access free of charge the priority categories of personal electronic health data referred to in Article 14, including for cross-border care, through health professional access services. The services referred to in the first paragraph of this Article shall be accessible only to health professionals who are in possession of electronic identification means which are recognised pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 or other electronic identification means compliant with common specifications referred to in Article 36 of this Regulation. Personal electronic health data shall be presented in a user-friendly manner in the electronic health records to allow for easy use by health professionals.
Relevant Recitals for this Article
In order to facilitate the exercise of the complementary access and portability rights established under this Regulation, Member States should establish one or more electronic health data access services. Those services could be provided at national, regional or local level, or by healthcare providers, in the form of an online patient portal, an application for mobile devices or by other means. They should be designed in an accessible way, in particular for persons with disabilities. Providing such a service to enable natural persons to have easy access to their personal electronic health data is a substantial public interest. The processing of personal electronic health data through those services is necessary for the performance of that task assigned by this Regulation in the sense of Article 6(1), point (e), and Article 9(2), point (g), of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. This Regulation lays down the necessary conditions and safeguards for the processing of electronic health data in electronic health data access services, such as electronic identification of natural persons accessing such services.
