The primary care (PC) in Flanders is going through a transition to realize integrated care (IC). Artevelde University of Applied Sciences (AUAS), as knowledge institution, wants to contribute to a strong PC and undertook a needs analysis incorporating the problems PC-actors are facing and the support AUAS could offer. A stakeholder mapping (e.g. care, welfare actors at micro-, meso- and macrolevel) was executed. 44 in dept interviews were conducted. After data-analyze, a member check (n=17) took place, followed by validation by the Flemish Patient Organization representing the person with care and support need, the Flemish Institute for PC, and the King Baudouin Foundation, a philanthropy organization. Key is the paradigm shift from supply-led care to person-centered care. Transformation towards IC encompasses various dimensions of integration: clinical, service, functional and organizational (Lewis et al.). Our findings showed obstacles on those dimensions. At the clinical level, care professionals and providers stressed the need for shared guidelines and protocols. At the service level, implementation of IC-services through interdisciplinary teams is hampered. Professionals do not know each other or what to expect, since they are mainly organized in ad hoc or fluid teams, hampering good collaboration. Participants indicated at the functional level the lacking of an integrated, patient-centered electronic record.Integration of organizations is still ongoing. Different obstacles within and without the sphere of influence of an organization were brought up, e.g., the current legal and financial framework. The participants indicated that both the PC- sector as well as education, research and policy hold a piece of the puzzle to facilitate the different forms of cooperation. They reached out to educational institutions to coordinate their educational and lifelong learning programs more co-creatively and flexible. Basic courses should work on interdisciplinary courses to promote cooperation later in the field. There ...
