Der er ikke tale om nogen form for harmonisering, men om en foranstaltning, der tager sigte på - på grundlag af sammenlignelige sundhedsdata - at give de enkelte EU-lande mulighed for at fastlægge prioriteringer inden for sundhedspolitikken, forbedre dennes rentabilitet og dermed dens effektivitet.
It is not a question of any kind of harmonization, but of a measure whose aim - on the basis of comparable health data - is to enable the individual EU countries to establish health policy priorities and to make health policy more cost-effective and hence more efficient.
