Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 98(2).

The connection and disconnection of another infrastructure to or from the central platform for digital health shall be subject to a decision of the Commission adopted by means of an implementing act, based on the result of compliance checks of the technical aspects of exchanges as referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph.
