Reimbursement of your device
We are aware of whether most services are covered by the health insurer or not. Feel free to make an appointment to discuss your needs or inquire with your health insurer.
A leg prosthesis from Protec
Coverage for leg prostheses
Is my leg prosthesis covered?”
We have contracts with all health insurers in the Netherlands, so you can be assured of good prosthetic care at Protec. Leg prostheses are covered by the basic insurance. For most health insurers, leg prostheses do not fall under the deductible and are usually provided on loan. This means that the prosthesis is not your property, but the property of the prosthetics manufacturer (in this case, Protec). For this reason, a loan agreement must be signed.
A sports prosthesis from Protec
Coverage for sports prostheses
Is my sports prosthesis covered?”
You can apply for reimbursement for your own sports prosthesis (or sports blade) with your health insurer. Unfortunately, in many cases, a sports prosthesis is not reimbursed. In such cases, a different procedure must be followed. It is important to know that you play a significant role in the application process.
If your insurer does not cover the sports prosthesis, you can either purchase the prosthesis yourself or initiate a process to obtain another form of reimbursement (through WMO, Uniek Sporten or crowdfunding). This process may take some time.
A cranial remolding helmet of Protec
Coverage for cranial remolding helmets
Are cranial remolding helmets covered?”
Unfortunately, cranial remolding helmets are not typically covered by health insurers. Some health insurers may partially reimburse cranial remolding helmets with supplementary insurance. Since most people have to pay for the helmets themselves, we believe it is important that you, as a customer, are not faced with unexpected costs. Therefore, we provide a clear explanation of the costs associated with helmet therapy. Additionally, at Protec, no second helmet is needed, as we use two helmets in one device. This way, your little one won’t outgrow the helmet and you won’t incur costs for a second helmet.
