This free opening Hospitals on FHIR webinar introduces the European Health Data Space (EHDS), in partnership with HL7 Europe and the Xia project, and provides an overview of the health data categories defined for primary use. It describes which types of health data are in focus, how they are framed at the EU level and what this means in practice for healthcare organisations and IT providers.

The session sets the regulatory and conceptual foundation for the full webinar series, clarifying how EHDS data categories translate into concrete interoperability requirements.
