  • You have to be sure how much you will get covered after paying the cost of your treatment.
  • Each insurance manage different percentages of reimbursement.
  • It is always important to contact your insurance company first and to ask directly how much reimbursement you will receive for treatment from a BIG registered Gz psychologist who has no contracts with the insurance companies.
  • International Insurance companies like CIGNA , AON, JSIS and MSH will usually reimburse psychological help for 100%, but it is always advisable to check directly with your health care provider first.
  • I do work with Dutch insurances but contract free. That means for you:
  • If you want the Dutch insurance to cover your treatment, please get in contact with your insurance company first and make sure to know if you have a restitution policy or a natura policy.
