First, it usually starts with the general hype about all that that magic EHDS will deliver for us. Have you ever seen what real health records look like?! Some places in Europe still don't have digital ones ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”
Then, even if there are half-way decent records- have you actually ever tried getting anything *out* of basically any system? And I'm not even referring to registries- that's an entire different ballpark- just your own, personal records

Step 1๏ธโƒฃ the Referral Unit in DG Presidency checks the legislative proposal mainly on the basis of the @Europarl_EN's ANNEX VI in the 'Rules of Procedures', makes a referral to a lead committee and appoint opinion giving committees. This decision is then announced in plenary.
