Four areas around which the Consortium organises its work

Medical Data Cybersecurity

Working group convened under NSDC with NCA and the Ombudsman's office.

Standards & Interoperability

Advocacy for Ukraine's alignment with HL7 FHIR, ISO 27799, GDPR.

Regulatory Dialogue

A platform for public-private dialogue on digital-medicine rules.

Information Continuity

Secure data exchange, unified identifiers — the substrate AI in medicine requires.

The first secure AI infrastructure for medical data

Medicine in the 21st century is shifting from reactive treatment to preventive care. That shift cannot happen without secure, unified, continuous medical-data infrastructure — the foundation on which predictive AI models can be built.

Preventive medicine

Moving from "treat diseases" to "prevent them" requires unifying a person's medical data across their entire life: heredity, physiology, behavioural patterns, diagnostic history. Without a single secure space for that data, preventive medicine remains a promise.

Secure AI infrastructure

The Consortium's technology partner Dr.Umka is building the first international protocol for the secure exchange and storage of medical data, designed from the ground up as the foundation for AI in medicine. Security, provenance verification, abuse prevention — these are architectural principles from the first line of code, not features bolted on later.

International standards

Alignment with HL7 FHIR, ISO 27799, GDPR, and the technical specifications of the EU eHealth Network is a non-negotiable condition without which Ukrainian eHealth infrastructure remains isolated. The international knowledge base is collected in the Consortium's knowledge base.

The roundtable was convened by three institutions

  • National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine

  • National Cybersecurity Association (NCA / НАК)

  • Office of the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights

President of the International eHealth Consortium

"We must create a real eHealth space, with clear rules, a development strategy, and information continuity. For Ukraine, this is a tremendous chance to join the countries with the most modern electronic health systems."
