Definition: Health Legislation on Structural Interoperability (EBI) is a grouping that covers a set of directives and decisions implemented by the European Union. These legislations aim to facilitate the recognition of medical prescriptions issued in another Member State, establish the rules for the management and functioning of the network of national authorities responsible for eHealth, and apply patients' rights in cross-border healthcare. Source: EIRA Team Research Additional information: The Health Legislation on Structural Interoperability (EBI) includes the Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU of 20 December 2012, Directive 2011/24/EU the European Parliament and of the Council of 3 November 2014, Commission Implementing Decision 2019/1765 of 22 October 2019, and Directive 2011/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011. These legislations are designed to improve the interoperability of health systems across the EU, ensuring that patients can access healthcare services and have their prescriptions recognized across borders. Example: For instance, a patient from France visiting Germany can have their medical prescriptions recognized and filled in Germany thanks to the Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU. Similarly, the Directive 2011/24/EU ensures that a patient from any EU country can access healthcare services in any other EU country. The Commission Implementing Decision 2019/1765 provides the rules for the establishment, management, and functioning of the network of national authorities responsible for eHealth, thereby ensuring a coordinated approach to eHealth across the EU.
