Health and care
Changes in this field are caused by multiple factors, such as the growing influence of the free market, the need to improve efficiency and control costs, and changes in what treatment is covered and to what extent. A lot of attention is paid to quality, innovation, and safety (including patient safety). Medical disciplinary law plays a significant role in this. In addition, decentralization is occurring in areas such as youth care, which has drastically changed the playing field.
