In a newly published article, ‘IMA/AIM data report: applications and limitations of Belgian prescription data; Costa et. al. offer an overview of the datasets on medical prescriptions in Belgium provided by the Belgian inter-mutual agency (InterMutualistisch Agentschap/Agence InterMutualiste – IMA/AIM). These extensive datasets consist of multiple layers: information of prescription numbers and costs is available for 13 medication classes, at four different geographical levels, by sex and age group, year by year from 2006 to 2014.
