Abstract
Challenges that health & care faces, translate to challenges for the regulatory authorities. Classic regulatory strategies aimed at compliance increasingly fall short in contributing to quality of (health)care. In this webinar Ian will use the model of ‘value driven regulation’ to show how the Dutch Inspectorate strives to keep up with the dynamics of the sectors it regulates, by keeping its eye on creating societal value. Ian will also give an overview of the broad range of scientific research projects within the Inspectorate aimed at improving the positive impact of its regulation.
NB The Dutch Inspectorate regulates/oversees all Dutch professionals and providers of healthcare, (long-term) care, youth care, pharmaceutical products and medical technology.
