Care organisation, a rethinking expedition in search for sustainability (CORTEXS).

The sustainability of health systems is under pressure from the sharp rise in the ageing population and a simultaneous reduction of public expenditures. A move towards a more demand-driven, integrated care system is widely seen as way to cope with these pressures. The necessary reconfiguration of the mainly supply-driven health care system of the Flemish Region requires a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach. This research focuses on 'integrated care'.
