Aims: To determine the knowledge and prescribing behaviour regarding new type 2 diabetes medication in general practice. Physicians in Belgium are bound by the prescription criteria which do not always correspond to the international guidelines.
Design & Method: A mixed methods study with an online questionnaire was conducted in Flanders to collect data on demographic characteristics, theoretical knowledge, and prescribing behaviour, using ten theoretical questions and six clinical cases, based on the American Diabetes Association/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (ADA/EASD) guidelines and the Belgian reimbursement criteria.
