Information to patients is a subject that goes to the core of EPF' work and transcends much of what we do. EPF believes that ALL patients, no matter their condition, background or nationality, have a fundamental and legitimate human right of access to information about their health, medical conditions and the availability of treatments including knowledge of the best available management of their disease. It is a question of solidarity, equity and patients rights.
For further information on the major policy developments on information to patients, please visit the European Commission website.
