KCE Reports 333C (2020) In our country around 455,000 people use hearing aids due to hearing loss that can range from slight to very severe. Our health insurance sees to it that everyone can have access to the (sometimes partial) reimbursement of the cost of these devices, but the budget that this represents for the INAMI (National Sickness and Invalidity Insurance Institute) has more than doubled in ten years. It is chiefly the costs associated with increasingly sophisticated (partially or wholly) implantable hearing aids that are constantly rising.

KCE Reports 319C (2019, 2ed.) Any migrant who arrives in Belgium and seeks asylum automatically receives access to healthcare for the duration of the asylum procedures.

KCE Reports 292C (2017)KCE was asked to compile an inventory of all health goals defined at the federal level, as recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO).

It is therefore necessary to give them a common thread and a framework, for example via a platform that coordinates the policy of setting objectives.

In this context, the KCE has been asked to study the possibilities of setting up a common Horizon Scanning system for pharmaceutical products.
