Personal Health Records (PHRs)

The EHDS regulation supports the individuals to be able to update their own health data in EHR systems or in a separate system. PHRs are under the exclusive control of citizens and include data originating from different sources: data created by healthcare professionals, data provided by wearables or specific wellbeing or care support apps, or data directly inserted by citizens. The last two data categories must be distinguished from health data inserted by healthcare professionals.
