The Belgian Context
• 11 million inhabitants, 42.000 physicians, 5000 public pharmacies
• open drug market: ± 2500 different drugs available and ± 3000 drug representatives
• limited access to practice-oriented evidence based information
• A lot of “partners” in a complicated country (3 languages, 2 communities, 3 regions, national and regional health policies)
