Wijziging van de Zorgverzekeringswet in verband met de verhoging van het verplicht eigen risico

This legislative proposal seeks to amend the Healthcare Insurance Act to increase the mandatory deductible (eigen risico) for insured persons. The measure aims to adjust the cost-sharing structure of the Dutch healthcare system to ensure long-term affordability and sustainability of health insurance premiums. This change directly affects all individuals with Dutch health insurance, as they would be required to pay a higher amount out-of-pocket for covered healthcare services before the insurance provider begins reimbursement.
