As a typical European developed country, Belgium has accumulated relatively successful experience in developing elderly care and longterm care system. This study summarized and analyzed the Belgian long-term care model and its policies, regulations, financing, and the qualification of the health providers, in order to suggest its implications for China. There are currently six types of elderly care in Belgium including the home care, short-term care, service flat, homes for the elderly, nursing homes, and geriatric wards. The legislation and policies have been developed in detail on the numbers of resident beds, the use of pension funds, social security contributions, and the qualification of the service providers. Based on the Belgian experience, our study suggested that China could strengthen the top-level design of elderly care system, promote the harmonious development of multiple models for elderly care, play full role of social organizations and provide the professional training for the health providers in the field of the elderly care, all of which would contribute to continuous improvement of the Chinese elderly care system.
