How do I request a refund for a hospital stay?

Two to three months after leaving the hospital, you will receive your hospital bill. Are you affiliated with CM-Hospitaalplan or CM-Hospitaalplan Plus? Take your bill and start filing.

Preferably digital

For the online declaration at CM-Hospitaalplan or CM-Hospitaalplan Plus you do not need a scanner or camera, the declaration is done on the basis of the invoice number. Here you will find a video that shows you step by step how it works.

Still on paper?

Are you unable to submit your declaration digitally? Then print the declaration form , fill it in and submit it signed together with your hospital invoice by e-mail or via a CM mailbox .

Submit additional invoices

If you have them, also submit the following invoices. Because for those the refund will not be done automatically:

  • invoices for urgent patient transport (112 transport)
  • invoices from the recognized rehabilitation centers Ter Duinen in Nieuwpoort, Hooidonk in Zandhoven and Domaine de Nivezé in Spa
  • remaining medical costs after reimbursement by another hospital insurance

Deliver these documents together with this completed form . Do this by e-mail or via the CM mailbox .

Please note that CM-Hospitaalplan and CM-Hospitaalplan Plus also provide automatic reimbursement for medical costs of examinations directly related to your hospital admission, starting 1 month before and ending 3 months after your admission. For admissions from 1 January 2025, this will be 2 months before and ending 4 months after your admission.

Even better insured? For CM-Hospitaalplan Plus this period is 2 months before to 6 months after your admission.
