Incidental fees
If you do not live in the Netherlands or if you are not insured under the Healthcare Insurance Act for some other reason, or if you are uncertain whether you are insured under the Dutch Healthcare Insurance Act, consult this government site for the rules. In any case, please contact the Care Administration Department of the Máxima directly at internationalcare@prinsesmaximacentrum.nl. We will jointly seek a solution for having the costs of the treatment reimbursed. We will then charge the passerby rate. You can find the pass-through rates for 2023 here and the pass-through rates for 2024 here. If you are insured abroad, please contact your insurer. They usually want to know in advance what the expected costs will be.
Seated patient transport for chemoradiotherapy
If you are to go to the Princess Máxima Center for chemoradiotherapy, you can arrange for seated patient transport for which you need prior permission from your health insurer for reimbursement of the costs.
Usually, you can request permission by telephone or in writing. Your insurer's website will explain how to submit an application. If your application is approved, the health insurer will pay the transport costs. If you drive yourself, you will be reimbursed for the travel costs. Whether you will receive full reimbursement depends on your policy conditions, the type of transport and whether you choose a transporter with which your insurer has a contract. Seated patient transport is subject to a statutory personal contribution of a maximum of €113 per calendar year.
More information on seated patient transport can be found on your health insurer's website.
