BACH

The Belgian Alliance for Cardiovascular Health (BACH) is dedicated to uniting diverse stakeholders within the Belgian cardiovascular health landscape. The collective mission of the alliance is to enhance awareness surrounding cardiovascular diseases and advocate for their prioritization on the policy agenda. BACH calls upon policymakers to prioritize cardiovascular health by integrating health objectives into a comprehensive Belgian Cardiovascular Plan. As a significant health concern, cardiovascular diseases, along with cancer, represent the primary cause of death in Belgium. These conditions impact over one million patients, resulting in nearly 30,000 fatalities and incurring an annual healthcare cost of 4.5 billion euros. The alliance is committed to addressing these challenges and fostering a healthier future.
