Wijziging van de Algemene Wet Bijzondere Ziektekosten met het oog op centralisering van de indicatiestelling

This Dutch bill amends the General Act on Exceptional Medical Expenses (Algemene Wet Bijzondere Ziektekosten, AWBZ-related framework) to centralise the assessment of care eligibility (indicatiestelling). Eligibility decisions determine whether people qualify for long-term care funded through the national system. Centralising them aims to make the process more uniform across the country. Based on metadata only; the full legislative text was not reviewed. The change mainly affects people applying for long-term care support, care providers, and the bodies that currently carry out eligibility assessments. Their roles and procedures may shift under a single national structure. The exact scope and transition arrangements are not clear from the metadata alone.
