Insurance and reimburement

Physiotherapy Medical Centre Randwijck has contracts with nearly all health insurance companies in the Netherlands. Please note that treatments are not covered if you only have basic insurance ("basisverzekering"). You must have additional coverage ("supplementary insurance") to be reimbursed for physical therapy. You can find the number of treatments covered in your insurance policy documents.

Since 2006, patients are allowed to visit a physical therapist without a referral from their general practitioner. We will first conduct a screening to determine whether physical therapy is appropriate for your condition. If we have any doubts, we may advise you to see your doctor before starting treatment.

For chronic conditions, a written referral from your doctor is required (as per the Ministry of Health's official list of chronic conditions). In such cases, the first 20 treatments are covered by your additional insurance, and any treatments after that are paid through the basic insurance.

If you do not have additional insurance, you will need to pay for the first 20 sessions yourself. From the 21st session onward, coverage will be provided by the basic insurance.

For more detailed information, contact your health insurance provider or visit www.zorgvergoeding.com.

Collaboration within the medical centre

Since 2012, our practice has been part of Medisch Centrum Randwijck (MCR). We work closely with general practitioners, pharmacists, and psychologists, forming a multidisciplinary healthcare team. For more information, please visit www.mcrandwijck.nl.

Our practice is also a member of Samenwerkende Amstelveense Fysiotherapeuten (SAF). If we do not have the specific expertise required, we can refer you to one of our collegues in Amstelveen.
