This topic aims at supporting activities that are enabling or contributing to one or several expected impacts of destination 5 “Unlocking the full potential of new tools, technologies and digital solutions for a healthy society”. To that end, proposals under this topic should aim to deliver results that are directed towards and contributing to all of the following expected outcomes:
A vast quantity of health datasets exist across Europe, from multiple sources (individual care, medical registries, social, environmental behavioural, wellbeing, clinical trials, research, administrative, etc.), and of varying quality. This represents a tremendous opportunity for the reuse of this data for purposes other than for the one for which they were originally collected and spur the development of better prevention strategies, diagnoses, treatments and care plans.
The European Health Data Space (EHDS) will provide a common EU framework for secondary use of health data such as research, innovation, regulatory purposes, policymaking and personalised medicine. It will enable data users to have access to large amounts of health data through health data access bodies empowered with the EHDS legal provisions to overcome existing limitations regarding the processing of health data for secondary uses.
To support data users in the discovery and selection of datasets for their purposes, there is a growing need to develop a data quality and utility framework to articulate the characteristics and the potential usefulness of datasets. This framework will also support data holders in identifying and addressing areas of improvement which can, in turn, allow for wider and better use of these datasets.
Several initiatives have developed or are developing guidelines and recommendations for health data quality, however, these typically focus on specific data types (i.e. 1+ Million Genome Initiative[1]) or areas of applications (i.e. European Medicines Agency – EMA and Heads of Medicines Agencies’ Big Data Steering Group activities to support medicines regulation[2]). Similarly, previous studies and initiatives have addressed specific dimensions of ‘data quality’ for health data but none are offering a framework suitable for the breadth of data types and encompassing the quality and utility elements proposed in the EHDS legal provisions. The proposed framework should take into account the various needs of data users whilst at the same time avoid becoming an excessive burden on data holders which will need to produce the data quality and utility label.
Proposals should address all of the following activities:
The consortium should be composed of representatives from data users, data holders, health data access bodies, and other relevant stakeholders to the scope of secondary use of health data, adequately covering the diversity of heath data types and users’ needs across European Member States.
