What does OntzorgPlus cover?
It goes without saying that you are well insured with ONVZ. But what happens when you suddenly face unexpectedly high costs as a result of a serious accident or illness? We are talking about the kinds of costs that are not directly health care-related, or that your basic health-care plan does not cover. For example, who will take care of your children and do the housekeeping while you are in hospital? How will you arrange home and car modifications if you become disabled? And how do you ensure a smooth treatment and recovery process?
Your health care and its organisation in trusted hands
In an emergency situation, you already have a lot on your plate. Meanwhile, you want to keep your work and family life on track. You may not want to think about that right now. However, we often see that help during an emergency situation falls short. You may have to wait for assistance a long time, end up with the wrong kind of help or not get the help reimbursed. This is precisely why we created the option for you to outsource worrying about this to us, relying on our knowledge and expertise. Aside from that, we will cover any costs that are commonly incurred in these kinds of situations.
All it takes for us to take things out of your hands is one phone call to the ONVZ ZorgConsulent advisers, who will look into what you need and will get to work for you right away.
Refer to the coverage summary or general rules and regulations and coverage to see all of our benefits.
