Declaration

EPF should be seen as a response to recent calls by the European Commission and other EU institutions to have one pan-European patient body to address and be consulted on issues concerning the interests of patients in the European healthcare debate.

It also addresses the fact that, in this debate, non-patient groups and consumer organisations are currently expressing views supposedly on behalf of European patients in general, but without prior consultation with patients. It is now time for patients in Europe to have a voice, which is truly representative of their views.
