How is healthcare changing in Europe?

How can we rethink partnerships between the public and the private sector?

How can patients be truly at the centre of EU healthcare policymaking?

These are some of the questions that break the Bubble explores with the help of patients,

policymakers, industry representatives and healthcare professionals.

Above all, Break the Bubble is a place for experts to share visions, passions and solutions

to the most pressing EU healthcare policy debates.

Welcome to Break the Bubble, an incisive health podcast, available on Spotify and on your favorite

Today's episode features a great conversation between our senior council Hans Martens and

Anka Toma, executive director of the European Patients Forum.
