    🇧🇪 Belgium's healthcare system is widely recognised for its comprehensive coverage, high accessibility, and good health outcomes. With a life expectancy of 82.5 years in 2023, it ranks among the top performers globally. However, the system is facing mounting challenges that could jeopardise its sustainability in the long-term. Growing demand for medical services, staff shortages, financial pressures, and concerns about sustainability are straining the availability and quality of care − a reality that Belgium cannot escape.   This whitepaper, commissioned by the Belgian Association Hospital Managers, provides a critical analysis of these challenges and evaluates the healthcare system’s readiness to adopt value-based healthcare (VBHC). Developed through extensive collaboration it integrates the views and opinions from stakeholders across Belgium’s healthcare ecosystem with one objective: proposing a unified vision and way forward for the future. Thank you to all BioWin members who contributed to the survey or the development of this whitepaper—your collaboration has been key to defining our shared path forward in Healthcare. 👉 Read it here: https://lnkd.in/gwm57XUs #healthcare PwC Belgium
