The Ministry of Social Affairs and Health has issued a payment decree for 2022 on charges for work carried out by Findata, the Finnish Social and Health Data Permit Authority.

With the new payment regulation, more payment categories are being added to data and amendment permits. To facilitate predictability, we will update the Pricing page as soon as possible with more information about the criteria applicable to the different payment categories.

The decree is valid from 1 January to 31 December 2022 and affects all data permit and data request decisions made during that period. The decree therefore also sets prices for applications that have been pending since 2021.
