By extending the mandate of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, the EU aims to be better prepared and able to coordinate its response to possible future health crises. This means increased cooperation between EU, national and international bodies, collection of timely and comparable EU-wide data, as well as monitoring national health systems more closely to assess their capacity to tackle outbreaks.

Implementation of the cross-border Healthcare Directive: extracts from the debate on the report by Ivo BELET (EPP, BE)

In Budapest, Hungary, two French women came to undergo a dentist surgery. They arrived at the airport, to the hotel and to the clinic. This shooting took place in May 2013. Over the last decade, the EU Court of Justice has issued rulings confirming the right for patients to be treated outside their home country and reimbursed under certain conditions, but the applicable rules were still not entirely clear. The new Directive on patients' rights in cross-border healthcare clarifies these rules. In addition, it creates a network of national contact points to provide clear, accurate information on cross-border healthcare. And it helps EU countries share experiences on how to provide patients with the best possible care, for example using new health technologies.
