Yes. If it appears that there is a language barrier that prevents the care from being provided in an appropriate manner, an interpreter can be used in consultation. The organization that is committed to the quality of medical care and public health (KNMG) says the following about this: For good care, doctors and other care providers need more extensive use of professional interpreters, as was already shown in NIVEL research (2016). This mainly concerns situations in which the patient does not speak enough Dutch , the nature of the care demand requires a professional interpreter and the patient is demonstrably unable to afford a professional interpreter. These patients run additional health risks without an interpreter, as does society as a whole, for example in the case of infectious diseases. In addition, misunderstandings lead to extra use of care and therefore to extra costs .

Spine's care is covered by basic insurance and is therefore always insured. This means that, with a doctor's referral, there are no personal costs for the provision of care. An exception to this is your own risk. The level of the healthcare rates in the Netherlands is determined by the Dutch Healthcare Authority. But the amount of the reimbursement you receive for your care is determined by the health insurers in the Netherlands. And they are not always right. The reimbursement by health insurers depends, among other things, on the policy you have taken out. Different health insurers also reimburse a different amount for the same care. The reimbursements paid by health insurers are almost always lower than the rates set by the Dutch Healthcare Authority. The costs that are not reimbursed by the health insurer will be borne by Spine. So they will never be charged to you. In this way, the care remains affordable at a reasonable price. And always accessible. Also for you. Do you want to enjoy your daily life again? Then click on one of the buttons below. We look forward to seeing you at Spine!
