The allocation of tasks and responsibilities in oral healthcare: basic terms

Oral healthcare is to an ever-larger extent delivered by a team or network. Members of such a network often seem to be unsure about the rules that govern the distribution of tasks. The Individual Healthcare Professions Act (Dutch: Wet BIG) in which this distribution is defined, makes use of very specific terms. Clarity concerning these terms is a prerequisite to be able to reflect, in a subsequent contribution, on the realisation of the prerequisites that are applicable to working in a team or network.
