Tilburg Law and Economics Center

TILEC-NZa Research Network

The NZa (Dutch Healthcare Authority) and TILEC have engaged in a far-reaching cooperation. Part of this cooperation is that TILEC has committed itself to a number of activities in the mutual interest of TILEC and NZa, while the NZa has provided funding for those activities.

The activities include:

  • Research on policy relevant topics in health care

  • Courses on the economics of health care by senior TILEC researchers

  • Engagement of senior TILEC members in the public debate

  • Cooperation of TILEC staff with other University of Tilburg staff on health

  • Linking the law and economics of health

    • With this cooperation the University of Tilburg has established itself as a major player in the economics and law of health care in the Netherlands.
    The Netherlands is a promising country for health care research, given its new health care system based on a combination of solidarity and managed competition.
