How to immigrate to the Netherlands to see a doctor easily?

# 中中中 # Introduction Many Chinese who have just immigrated to the Netherlands do not know how to choose medical insurance, nor do they know how to register and make an appointment with a family doctor. Here's how to easily immigrate to the Netherlands for medical treatment. Welcome to read!

First, Dutch medical insurance.

In the Netherlands, everyone must buy basic medical insurance in the Netherlands, including seeing a family doctor. After you get your ID card in the Netherlands, you can contact the insurance company to learn about medical insurance. If there is no serious illness or need to see a dentist, the housekeeper suggests that you can buy basic insurance directly. Medical insurance can change the insurance company or insurance content every year. After purchasing insurance, you can apply for medical subsidies according to your personal or family income and return a certain amount every month.

Second, family doctors.

The first step to see a doctor in Holland is a family doctor. There are a large number of family doctors in the Netherlands, both men and women. You can find a family doctor close to home to facilitate medical treatment. You can see the doctor's work place, contact information and other basic information on the Internet.

Here, I need to remind you that registered family doctors need to bring their own insurance cards or electronic cards, and if they have medical records, they should also bring them with them so that doctors can better understand your physical condition.

If you accidentally get sick, you can call your family doctor in advance to make an appointment. If it is an emergency, the family doctor will try to arrange for you to see a doctor as soon as possible on the same day.

Third, outpatient pharmacy

After seeing a doctor, the doctor will prescribe relevant medicine for you according to your situation and take it from the pharmacy. With medical insurance, you can choose a nearby pharmacy, and then you can get it for free every time you take it.

You can also choose to connect the family doctor's clinic with the pharmacy, so that after each visit, the doctor will send the prescription directly to the pharmacy website and then take the medicine directly.

Drugs in the Netherlands, like those in China, are divided into prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs. Prescription drugs must be prescribed by a doctor, and over-the-counter drugs can be purchased at any time if necessary.

Fourth, hospitals.

Under normal circumstances, to go to the hospital, you need a family doctor to issue a referral form after treatment. However, if you catch up with emergency symptoms, you can also bring your own insurance card and identity documents and go directly to the emergency department and trauma center of the hospital for medical treatment.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) dentist

In the Netherlands, dentists are independent of hospitals and clinics, and they often have their own dental clinics. If the medical insurance includes dentists, you can choose to register at the dentist's office and bring your insurance card and relevant personal documents when you see a doctor.

Some dental clinics will require patients to pay medical expenses in advance, and then the patients will reimburse the insurance company themselves. However, there are also some dental clinics that send the bills directly to the insurance company without the need for patients to pay for themselves.

Need to remind everyone that the national adult basic medical insurance has little protection for dentistry. If you want to get insurance, you need to buy additional dental insurance, otherwise all the treatment costs will be borne by the patients themselves.

Intransitive verb medical expenses

Everyone needs to buy basic medical care in Holland. After paying a certain premium every month, the insurance company will pay the medical expenses covered by the insurance. Basic medical insurance will basically meet the medical needs of most people in their daily lives, including family doctors, specialists, obstetricians, hospitalization services, medical equipment and other expenses.

/kloc-Minors under the age of 0/8 can participate in the basic medical insurance free of charge, and one parent is insured. After purchasing insurance, you can get a medical insurance card or an electronic card. Through the medical insurance card, doctors can directly ask the insurance company for relevant medical expenses.
