EU-USA: The Spanish Presidency wants to push for a strategic agreement between the EU and the USA in digital health-care (Spanish EU Council Presidency, link):

"The Spanish Minister of Health and Social Policy, Trinidad Jiménez, met in Washington with her US counterpart, Kathleen Sebelius, and highlighted the desire of the Spanish Presidency of the European Union to push for a strategic bilateral agreement in digital healthcare. The aim is to create a scenario for clinical information exchange and technical interoperability between the project promoted by the Obama Administration and the European project."
