Abstract
The two concepts included in the title of this paper, intersectorial measures and individual incentives for healthy behaviour, do not form a logical unity; they are rather intended to embrace part of the field of health policy that is not directly involved with the provision and consumption of health care, but with activities of primary prevention and health promotion.
