Wijziging van de Zorgverzekeringswet in verband met het ongewijzigd laten van het verplicht eigen risico voor de zorgverzekering

This Dutch bill amends the Health Insurance Act (Zorgverzekeringswet) so that the compulsory deductible (verplicht eigen risico) for basic health insurance stays at its current level rather than being changed. The deductible is the amount insured people must pay themselves for care before their insurer covers costs. The bill was submitted to the Dutch House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer). This summary is based on the title and metadata only, not the full legislative text. Anyone insured under the Dutch basic health insurance system would be affected, since the deductible applies to most of them. The bill would fix the amount in law so that it does not change in the period it covers. Insurers and the national health authorities would also be affected by how it is applied.
