I don't think I need the health insurance that the CAK took out for me

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.

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.

How do I apply for the Wlz assessment?

The Social Insurance Bank (SVB) can do a Wlz assessment for you. Apply for the Wlz assessment on the SVB website. You can fill in the form online, if you have DigiD. Otherwise you need to print the form, fill it in, and send it by post. The address of the SVB is on the form.

Apply for the Wlz assessment on the SVB website.

What happens next?

Within 8 weeks the SVB will send you a letter with the result. If you are insured under the Wlz, you need to get a Dutch health insurance. You will get 6 weeks after the result, to get a Dutch insurance. If you are not Wlz insured, you do not need a Dutch health insurance. We can cancel the insurance when we get the result of the SVB.

Send the result to us

When you receive the result, please send it to us. You can use the contact form on our website. Choose 'Regeling Onverzekerden', at the first question of the form.

Or send a copy of the result by post, to:
