Reimbursement overview for 2014
Reader’s guide
This reimbursement overview provides an
overview of reimbursements of the UMC
Zorg-verzekering and the UMC Aanvullende Verzekering
supplementary insurances. All items listed in the
overview of reimbursements marked with a
•
are covered by your UMC Zorgverzekering.
Reimbursements are specified per calendar year,
unless stated otherwise. When we use the abbre-
viation ‘max.’, we mean ‘up to a maximum of’.
Additional conditions
Additional conditions, such as authorisation
requirements, necessary referrals and authorised
care providers, are specified in the policy
con-ditions. If you require care, we recommend that
you first consult the policy conditions. You will
find these on www.umczorgverzekering.nl.
Non-contracted care
UMC Zorgverzekering is a non-contracted care
policy. If you are covered by this type of insurance,
you are entitled to reimbursement of the costs of
care and you are entirely free to choose your own
care provider. It does not matter whether the care
provider you choose has agreements with UMC
Zorgverzekering or not. The only requirement is
that the care provider satisfies the requirements
set out in our policy conditions. You are entitled
to reimbursement of the costs of care up to a
maximum of the statutory rates current in the
Netherlands. If statutory rates do not apply to the
relevant care, the costs will be reimbursed up to
a maximum of the reasonable market price
current in the Netherlands. If you obtain care from
a contracted care provider, rates will have been
agreed upon with the relevant care providers up
to a maximum of the reasonable market price
current in the Netherlands.
Compulsory and voluntary excess
If you are aged 18 or older, a compulsory excess
of € 360 per calendar year applies to the UMC
Zorgverzekering. You can voluntarily increase
your compulsory excess to € 460, € 560, € 660,
€ 760 or € 860. You are then eligible for a discount
on the premium. The excess does not apply to
expenses incurred for visits to a general
practitioner, obstetric care, maternity care,
preferred medications designated by us, care aids
on loan, follow-up checks for kidney or liver
donors and care programmes.
Reimbursements from supplementary
insurance
Your UMC supplementary insurance policy or
policies entitle you to reimbursement of the costs
of care up to a maximum of the statutory rates
currently applicable in the Netherlands. If
statu-tory rates do not apply to the relevant care, the
costs will be reimbursed up to a maximum of the
reasonable market price current in the
Nether-lands. If you choose to take out care provided by a
care provider contracted by us, the costs of care
are reimbursed based on the rate agreed with the
care provider concerned.
Preferred, accredited or contracted care
Please note! Preferred, accredited or contracted
care may also apply to your supplementary
insurance package. This is indicated in the
over-view. If you take out care from non-contracted,
non-accredited or non-preferred care providers
you may not be reimbursed for the full amount or
not receive reimbursement altogether. Further
information can be found in the policy conditions.
Budgets
If you choose to take out supplementary
insurance, UMC Zorgverzekering offers you
freedom and convenience in determining your
reimbursement. As UMC Zorgverzekering has
grouped the available treatments, you are able
to see at a glance which care is reimbursed.
A maximum reimbursement applies for each
group of treatments; we refer to this maximum
using the term ‘budget’. You decide which
treatment, within the given treatment group, you
use your budget for. This enables you to get the
most out of your reimbursement amount.
Budgets are available for e.g. movement related
care, care aids and dental care. You can find these
budgets in the reimbursements overview.
