At today’s conference on cross-border healthcare& #EuropeanReferenceNetworks, I stressed: too many patients are still unaware of their rights to care across 🇪🇺.
With health package, we can build Europe where access to high-level care is not a privilege but a reality for everyone.
What is our role in the #EuropeanReferenceNetworks?
✊ We empower patient representatives with the skills needed to engage with doctors.
🗣️ We advocate for ERNs' sustainability.
🤝 We establish partnerships within the rare disease ecosystem to enhance the networks' development.
