Community health centers

The Community Health Centers - also called medical homes - have various healthcare providers who can help you. The composition of the team may differ per community health center.

Community health centers want to make healthcare more accessible in two ways:

• they make care affordable for everyone;
• Various care providers work together under one roof: general practitioners, physiotherapists, nurses, social workers, dieticians, etc.

How does it work?

Everyone can use the care provided in a community health center. The condition is that you register in advance.

Are you registered? From then on you must always call on the care providers of this center. You do not have to pay anything for this care. The community health centers receive a fixed amount from CM per patient, no matter how often they visit.

Are you registered in a community health center and do you consult a healthcare provider outside the center, while that discipline is present in the community health center? Then you are not entitled to a refund from CM.

If this consultation takes place during an on-call shift, after consultation with the center or outside the center's working area, the center will reimburse the service. The co-payment remains your responsibility.

Important:

• Before you register with a community health center, you can complete a three-month trial period . During this period you pay for the services yourself and CM will reimburse them afterwards. After three months you decide whether or not to register.
• Do you no longer want to be registered in a community health center? Then you can always unsubscribe .
