Google a étendu la disponibilité de son API "Cloud Healthcare" dans le but d'améliorer l'interopérabilité des soins de santé et d'aider les fournisseurs à obtenir des informations à partir d'une myriade de sources de données médicales. L'API Cloud Healthcare de Google permet aux organismes de santé de collecter et de gérer différents types de données médicales via le cloud, notamment les normes DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine),  Health Level 7  et  Fast Healthcare interoperability Resource . Ces données peuvent être alimentées par des programmes d'analyse et de machine learning afin que les prestataires de soins de santé puissent identifier des modèles qui pourraient les aider à améliorer les soins aux patients.

This decision takes into account the unprecedented challenges of the coronavirus pandemic and the need for an increased availability of vitally important medical devices across the EU whilst continuing to ensure patient health and safety until the new legislation becomes applicable. Vice-President for Promoting our European Way of Life, Margaritis  Schinas , said:  “Shortages or delays in getting key medical devices certified and on the market are not an option right now. The Commission is therefore taking a pragmatic approach and delaying the entry into application of new EU rules on medical devices, so we can have our medical industries pouring all their energy into what we need them to ...
