The hospital of tomorrow is built around outpatient care, e-Health, and a more balanced physician remuneration model, including a fair valuation of intellectual acts. In an evolving legal system, institutions \u2014 both public and private \u2014 must face major challenges: meeting the growing needs of an aging population while controlling finances and ensuring quality of care. They collaborate with many partners (suppliers, INAMI, SPF, AVIQ, trade unions, company councils, medical and paramedical staff\u2026) to better serve citizens. <\/p>
