A situation analysis methodology to support integrated care pathway projects through the Joint Action on Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes (Jacardi)
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes (DM) are major burdens on European health systems, magnified by ageing populations and staff shortages. To face these challenges, partners from 21 countries joined forces to launch the Joint Action on Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes (JACARDI), an EU-sponsored effort aiming to facilitate the strengthening of services in the context of these diseases. As part of this initiative, between 20…
Scaling up integrated care for chronic diseases in belgium
INTRODUCTION: Few integrated care studies elaborate how interventions are brought to wider scale. The SCUBY project developed interventions for scale-up of an Integrated Care Package (ICP) for two common diseases - type 2 diabetes and hypertension-, comprising evidence-based roadmaps and policy dialogues. This paper's aim is to report on the process evaluation of the ICP scale-up in Belgium. Specific objectives are: to describe the development of…
Navigating diabetes care inequities
Our pioneering findings support the social capital pathway, as CCM implementation is associated with a reduction in the healthcare inequity gap in the T2D care process. This suggests that promoting CCM implementation may improve healthcare equity, particularly in regions with significant socioeconomic disparities or high concentrations of deprived individuals
Evaluating the effectiveness of lifestyle education for individuals at increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (Halt2Diabetes)
This study is registered with the ISRCTN registry, identifier: ISRCTN62149214 ( https://www.isrctn.com/ISRCTN62149214 ). The date of registration is March 13, 2025
Hypertension Cascade Across Three Healthcare Systems and in Relation to the Level of Implementation of the Integrated Care Package
Despite contextual differences between the countries and difficulties in comparability of the cascades, lessons can be learnt from each country's strengths and weaknesses to improve quality of integrated hypertension care
Unravelling the Belgian cascade of hypertension care and its determinants
Our results show that undiagnosed hypertension is the most significant barrier to BP control in Belgium. Health interventions are thus needed to improve the accurate and timely diagnosis of hypertension. Once diagnosed, the Belgian health system retains patients fairly well along the continuum of hypertension care, yet targeted health interventions to improve hypertension management for high-risk groups remain necessary, especially with regard to…
Examining Macro-Level Barriers and Facilitators to Scaling Up Integrated Care from a Complexity Perspective
Examining differences and similarities between barriers in each health system stimulated reciprocal learning. Interactions between health system barriers in specific contexts require further attention to move complex health systems forward
Evaluation of the Implementation of Integrated Primary Care for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension in Belgium, Cambodia, and Slovenia
Countries can enhance integrated care for chronic diseases by implementing central policies, standardized protocols, and local adaptation, addressing resource constraints, promoting systematic screening and health education, and providing training for healthcare workers, tailored to community needs, to improve patient outcomes and healthcare delivery
Journey Through Healthcare of People With Complications of Type 2 Diabetes
Non-medical costs are not reimbursed, presenting a high burden to people. Self-management is tedious and hampered by other worries that people may have, such as financial constraints and coping with important life events. To conclude this study highlighted the need to improve diabetes screening. We suggest to enhance the role of paramedical professionals, integrate a social care worker, reduce financial constraints, and increase health literacy t…
Development of a Qualitative Data Analysis Codebook for Arterial Hypertension and Type-2-Diabetes Integrated Care Evaluation
The codebook is a useful tool for implementation research on integrated care for HTN and T2D at global scale. It facilitates cross-country learning, contributing to improved implementation, scale-up and outcomes
Scale-up Integrated Care for Chronic Diseases in Belgium
Background. The goal of more integrated care has been on the Belgium health care policy agenda since 2007 with the start of disease specific care trajectories, reports on chronic care and pilot projects at local level. While there is consensus on what needs to be done, the process of how it should be done is much more uncertain. Scale-up of integrated care is complex, because it requires multi-stakeholder action and intersectoral coordination at …
Positive empowerment of Belgian GPs and practice nurses as a key element in the change towards a proactive and integrated care for persons with chronic diseases
Why did we do it? (background): The growing number of people with chronic care needs is putting pressure on general practice. Coping with this pressure while keeping care accessible demands a transition to a more proactive and integrated chronic care. General practitioners and practice nurses do want to organise their care more integrated, but the hectic pace of everyday life does not make change evident. What did we do? During four regional blen…
Lessons on chronic care organisation during the Covid-19 pandemic in Cambodia, Slovenia, and Belgium. Covid as a magnifying glass on primary health care
Introduction: Primary health care (PHC) systems worldwide have been challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic. Some patients couldn’t access care or services were not available. Background: Fuelled by different health systems, the impact on NCD care has been different in the three countries under research: Cambodia (a developing health system in a middle-income country), Slovenia (a centrally-steered health system in a high-income country), and Belgium…
Hypertension cascade across three healthcare systems and in relation to the level of implementation of the integrated care package of hypertension
Introduction: Primary health care (PHC) systems across the globe are struggling to produce an effective response to the rising burden of disease related to Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). However, effective T2D care at the PHC level – the ‘Integrated Care Package (ICP)’– exists and is cost-effective. Further, there is evidence that this integrated care package ((1) structure) leads to improved care processes (2), to health care responsive to people’s need…

What Makes Integration of Chronic Care so Difficult? A Macro-Level Analysis of Barriers and Facilitators in Belgium
This paper highlights the importance of homogenization of responsibilities of governments regarding integrated care and the interdependency of policy and health care system factors. A whole system change is needed instead of the current Belgian model of prolonged search for common ground between conflicting opinions. Political commitment and citizen participation will be crucial
Implementation of Integrated Primary Care for Patients with Diabetes and Hypertension
Integrated care of the chronic patients in Slovenia is already provided at high levels, but the area of self-management support could be improved
Scale-up integrated care for diabetes and hypertension in Cambodia, Slovenia and Belgium (SCUBY)
Health systems worldwide struggle to manage the growing burden of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Many patients receive suboptimal care, especially those most vulnerable. An evidence-based Integrated Care Package (ICP) with primary care-based diagnosis, treatment, education and self-management support and collaboration, leads to better health outcomes, but there is little knowledge of how to scale-up. The Scale-up integrated care for diabetes a…
