Digital Health
Capability
Self-Assessment
Healthcare in the EU is being reshaped by regulation and digital technology — faster than most training programmes have kept pace. This is where you find out where you stand, and what to do next.
- This is a beta version of the assessment. It is fully functional.
- Your responses are stored only in your browser for the duration of this session.
- A login function will be introduced in a future version for a more personalised experience.
- This assessment is personal — your results are visible only to you.
- ODEON uses only fully anonymised, aggregated data to report on organisations' overall digital capability levels.
- Your personal information is never shared with third parties.
Why This Matters
The European Union (EU) has, in the space of a few years, enacted some of the most consequential health data and technology legislation in the world — the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the European Health Data Space (EHDS), the Network and Information Security Directive 2 (NIS2), and the EU Artificial Intelligence Act. These are not distant policy documents. They are already shaping what is expected of every clinician who works in a connected health system — which, increasingly, means all of them.
At the same time, health services across the EU are under real pressure to digitalise: electronic health records, telehealth, AI-assisted diagnostics, remote monitoring, interoperable patient data. The tools are arriving — often faster than the training to use them well. Within the next few years, a performance gap will open between clinicians who can work confidently and safely with digital tools in clinical settings, and those who cannot. That gap will affect the quality of care patients receive.
Most clinicians have not had formal digital health training. Not because they lack commitment — but because it has never been systematically built into medical, nursing, or allied health education the way clinical skills have. That is the gap ODEON exists to close.
This assessment does not assume you are an expert. It is designed for clinicians at every stage — from those just beginning to engage with digital tools, to those already leading digital change in their organisation. What it offers is an honest, structured picture of where you stand across the six capability domains that matter most in the EU clinical context — and a clear path forward. We hope it is useful.
About the Assessment
Built on internationally recognised frameworks — the WHO (World Health Organization) Digital Health Competency Framework, the EIT Health (European Institute of Innovation and Technology — Health) Competency Model, and FEDIP (Federation for Informatics Professionals in Health and Social Care) professional standards — and grounded in EU regulatory requirements: the EHDS (European Health Data Space), the EU AI Act (European Union Artificial Intelligence Act), NIS2 (Network and Information Security Directive 2), and GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). Every domain and every question is contextualised for the EU clinical workforce. This is not a generic digital literacy tool — it is built for clinicians working in a regulated, increasingly digitised European health system.
The Six Competency Domains
Five questions per domain. Each maps to a specific EU regulatory obligation or competency framework.
Before we begin
Your responses are confidential and used only to generate your personalised results. All fields are required.
Your scores and results are visible only to you, unless you choose to share them. No one else — not your employer, your team, or the Academy — can access your individual responses.
In the interest of your own professional growth, we encourage you to answer each question honestly — reflecting your true, day-to-day capabilities rather than your aspirations or best-case performance. The most useful results are the most accurate ones.
