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

This procedure proposes an amendment to the Health Insurance Act to increase the mandatory deductible (eigen risico) that policyholders must pay before their insurance covers healthcare costs. This measure is typically aimed at reducing overall healthcare spending and limiting unnecessary use of medical services. This change primarily affects individuals with Dutch health insurance, particularly those who require frequent medical care, as they will have to pay a higher amount out-of-pocket each year.
