Home care policy in the Netherlands. Reforming legislation to facilitate the provision of multi-disciplinary home
1University of Limburg, Department of Policy Science and Adminsitration, Maastricht, The Netherlands.
Abstract:
In the Netherlands, it is considered necessary to provide multidisciplinary home care to meet the demands of a growing number of patients. Existing legislation must be changed to facilitate the provision of such care. Although this has been an important government policy goal for several years, it has been extremely difficult to fundamentally change legislation. This article presents an analysis of the Dutch system of decision-making on government policy, to explain why this is the case. Using theoretical concepts such as 'interdependence' and 'steering', the authors studied empirical data published by the Willems Subcommittee, a governmental advisory body.
