Complete title:
Council Conclusions on Safe and efficient healthcare through eHealth

Description (short summary):
The conclusions recognise "the need for further political leadership and to integrate eHealth into health policy in order to develop eHealth services on the basis of public health needs".

Therefore the Council "invites" the Member States to conceive and implement initiatives aimed at enabling the deployment and use of eHealth services, and to "empower a high-level mechanism of governance at EU level".
