The care sector is constantly evolving and digitisation is playing an increasingly important role in this. One of the most striking changes is the transition to electronic billing (eFact or eAttest). From September 2025, it is mandatory for all doctors in Belgium to bill electronically.

Why electronic billing?

The switch to electronic billing offers numerous advantages:

  • Time savings: Electronic billing is simpler and faster than paper billing.
  • Accessibility: You have access to your billing and payment data from any location.
  • Secure: Billing takes place in a safe and reliable environment.
  • Follow-up: You can also export the data digitally.
