Question:

Explain the special features about the netherlands system

Author: Henriette Bergo



Answer:

Decentralised system. Individuals have the autonomy to choose their health insurers and specific insurance contracts annually. Can opt for sickness funds or reimbursement coverage(private) or a combination of both. Insurers negotiate contracts with healthcare providers, creating a network of contracted providers that deliver care without upfront costs. Can purchase additional coverage for services not included-> physio, dental care. Uninsured individuals in the Netherlands must pay out-of-pocket for services but are entitled to receive acute, necessary care for life-threatening situations at no cost.
