What this law does
Article 30(1)(b) of Law 59(I)/2019 has the National eHealth Authority see to the processing of the health data in the Electronic Health Record and its conversion into anonymous databases, so that banks of anonymous biomedical information that may be created can use them. Health data may be extracted from the Single Bank of Electronic Health Records only with each citizen's consent to include their personal data in anonymous databases.
Revenue from converting health data into anonymous databases and from supplying data from those databases to third parties is paid into the consolidated fund of the Republic, and part of it is granted to the Authority to manage for the citizen's benefit. The National eHealth Authority is a legal person of public law.
