In mid-November, everyone receives a new offer from their current health insurance provider. You would be deceiving yourself if you think that means the only thing to change is the price. It is important to check the policy conditions. If you have a restitutiepolis (non-contracted care policy), you are free to choose your healthcare providers. If you have a naturapolis (contracted care policy) or budgetpolis (low-budget policy) and you want to stay with the same insurer, you should check whether your HIV treatment centre, general practitioner and other care providers (e.g. physiotherapist and dentist) will continue to be reimbursed under the same conditions in 2021. If that is not the case, it is better to switch to the slightly more expensive restitutiepolis.
