Mid-term evaluation of the 3rd Health Programme 2014-2020 under Regulation (EU) No 282/2014 on the establishment of a third programme of Union action in the field of health (2014-2020)

The 3rd Health Programme is a sectorial financial instrument under the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) 2014-2020, established by Regulation (EU) No 282/2014. It underpins EU health policy coordination in order to complement, support and add value to the national policies of Member States. At the same time, it fully respects their autonomy to define their own health policies and to organise and deliver health services and medical care within their borders. It also supports implementation of EU health legislation.

This report briefly presents the main conclusions from the mid-term evaluation of the Third Health Programme in accordance with Article 13(3)(c) of Regulation (EU) No 282/2014. The report also presents ideas for improving the implementation of the Programme for the remaining programming period (2018-2020). The report is accompanied by a detailed staff working document.
