Authors' recommendations: This report only assess one alternative to hospital care, i.e. the concept of hospital at home (HAH). This does not mean that other alternatives (such as medical hotels), mentioned by some Belgian actors during the interviews, should not be investigated but in the timeframe of this report, it was not possible to assess more alternatives. An inventory of current initiatives and their evaluations (including cost aspects) was also out-of-scope (as decided in concertation with the National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance and the Federal Public Service Pubic Health).
