Consultation on the European Commission’s proposals for a Directive on the application of patients’ rights in cross-border healthcare (8th October 2008)

This consultation seeks to inform the UK Government’s negotiating position on the draft Directive and seeks views on the impacts the Directive could have on UK health systems. An initial impact assessment including an equality screening template on the Directive are also published. Closing date for comments is 3rd December 2008.
