The CAK took out a health insurance for me. What happens next?
You did not respond to our letters to get a health insurance
When you do not take out a health insurance within a year, we do it on your behalf. You receive a letter from us that we took out a health insurance. You will also receive your health insurance policy from your health insurer.
You pay this insurance to us for 12 months.
Do you have an income in the Netherlands? Then we will deduct the health insurance premium from your salary. If not, the Centraal Justitieel Incasso Bureau (CJIB) will send you an invoice letter every month. This way your pay for your insurance premium.
Can I choose for a different Dutch health insurance?
No, you have this health insurance for at least 12 months. After the 12 months you can apply for a different health insurance, at the end of the year, before the 1st of january.
Request a Wlz assessment if you think you do not need Dutch Basic health insurance
Do you suspect that a Dutch health insurance is not required for you? Then you need proof that you do not need Dutch health insurance. The Social Insurance Bank (SVB) can prove this for you, with a Wlz assessment.
