Impact of the digital healthcare revolution on health insurance (own-initiative opinion)

Opinion
Antagna on 20/09/2017
Dokumentreferens: 
INT/816-EESC-2017-01370-00-01-AC-TRA
Rapporteur: 
Alain COHEUR (Diversity Europe - GR III / Belgium)

The EESC believes that equal access to healthcare, one of the main objectives of health policies, can benefit from digital support provided certain conditions are met: equal geographical coverage; bridging the digital divide; interoperability among the various components of the digital architecture (databases, medical devices); and protection of health data which must under no circumstances be used to the detriment of patients. The EESC highlights the need to develop and facilitate people's digital health literacy to encourage a critical approach to health information and to support the development of a nomenclature of reimbursable treatments and wellbeing services

European Pillar of Social Rights (SOC/542)

Opinion
Antagna on 25/01/2017
Dokumentreferens: 
SOC/542-EESC-2016-01902-00-04-ac
Referral: 
COM(2016) 127 final COM(2016) 127 final
Rapporteur: 
Gabriele BISCHOFF (/Germany), Luca JAHIER (Diversity Europe - GR III/Italy), Jacek KRAWCZYK (Employers - GR I/Poland) (Germany)

The EESC adopted this opinion after in-depth work carried out during the four meetings of the study group. The opinion also reflects the national debates with civil society organisations carried out in all Member States between 2 September and 2 November 2016. These discussions were coordinated by three members of the EESC ('trios') from the country concerned, often in cooperation with the European Commission (15 debates) or the national economic and social council (7 debates). Participants came from a wide range of employers' and trade union organisations and other civil society organisations, as well as, to a lesser extent, from the academic world. A total of 116 EESC members and nearly 1,800 representatives of civil society organisations participated in the 28 debates. The conclusions/recommendations of the national debates have been grouped in the opinion, while the reports on the national debates will be published separately.

Freeing the EU from Asbestos

Opinion
Antagna on 18/02/2015
Dokumentreferens: 
CCMI/130-EESC-0000
Rapporteur: 
Plosceanu Aurel Laurentiu (Employers - GR I / Romania)
Co-rapporteur: 
Gibellieri Enrico (Workers - GR II/Italy)

The total removal of all used asbestos and all asbestos containing products has to be a priority target of the European Union. The EESC encourages the EU to work with the social partners and other stakeholders to develop and share action plans for asbestos removal and management. Several EU Member States have developed registers of buildings containing asbestos. The other Member States should be encouraged to develop such registers.
