The Commission has adopted the EU4Health Work Programme, which sets out the strategic policy orientations for 2025. The Work Programme supports the EU’s priorities in health policy, to protect citizens and boost innovation in Europe. Among the areas of focus are cardiovascular health, digital health, cancer, health technology assessment, crisis preparedness, medicines and medical devices and substances of human origin. The EU4Health programme provides funding through grants and public procurement to contribute to a healthier Europe.
The new Work Programme also reflects the reduction of EUR 1 billion in the EU4Health Programme budget which was agreed from 2025 onwards. The Commission will draw on synergies with other EU funding programmes, such as Horizon Europe, Digital Europe Programme or European Social Fund Plus, to optimise the EU’s health investments.
