Financial incentives for integrated care for people with chronic conditions in Belgium: a qualitative study within the CORTEXS research project: conference abstracts
2017
Introduction: Most other countries alike, stakeholders in the Belgian healthcare system are facing challenges to efficiently meet the needs of the chronically ill. The concept of integrated care is a guiding framework. Within this concept, financial incentives are considered as a key factor influencing stakeholders’ behavior. Incentives that are considered relevant include all-inclusive payments (global and bundled payment), pay-for-coordination, pay-for-performance, personal budget. Our understanding of how stakeholders perceive these incentives is limited. We do not yet fully understand their potential. The aim was to examine the perceptions of care professionals and patient organizations’ representatives regarding the potential benefits and concerns of financial incentives for integrated care. The study is embedded in a research project on integrated care in the Flemish region, Belgium (CORTEXS).
