ZEM Policy basic health insurance
The ZEM Policy is a combination policy
Under this combination policy, your employee is entitled to 100% reimbursement for care from contracted care providers. We have contracts with all GPs and hospitals in the Netherlands. Reimbursement for care from non-contracted providers is limited. However, in the case of oral care and paramedical care, the policy will fully reimburse care from any provider (both contracted and non-contracted).
The premium of the basic health insurance ZEM Policy is € 148.95 per month.

Excess and AV-ZEM supplementary insurance
If your employee receives care covered by the basic healthcare insurance policy, they must pay their excess towards the costs of the care. The amount of the compulsory excess is set by the government. In 2024, the excess is € 385.
The AV-ZEM policy also covers the compulsory excess of € 385. This means that your employee will not have to pay any invoices for their excess. In other words, no uncertainty, no hidden costs. This supplementary insurance is only available for employees who participate in group insurance via employment agencies that have a contract with ZEM.
