At the end of the year, it is often considered whether it is cheaper to switch to another health insurer, or to extend the basic insurance with an additional policy. And that last part is interesting if you are under treatment or want to be treated by a skin therapist. Are you additionally insured this year? Then see how you can make smart use of this in 2022, because various skin therapy treatments are (partly) covered by the additional insurance. Read more about the options below.
A skin therapist is a paramedic and treats medical problems such as acne, rosacea and pigment problems as a BIG registered therapist. Skin therapists have been directly accessible since 2011. This means that you do not need a referral from the doctor or a medical specialist.
Treatments performed by our skin therapists are not covered by the basic insurance. To qualify for (partial) reimbursement, you can take out additional insurance. Examples of these types of skin therapy treatments include acne therapy, scar therapy and camouflage therapy.
Which treatments and products can be reimbursed?
-Cleansing acne treatments;
-Chemical peels for acne (scars);
-Laser treatments for hyperpigmentation (pigment) and rosacea (vessels);
-Microneedling for (acne) scars;
-Removing skin imperfections;
-Jane Iredale camouflage products (makeup) for pigment and redness;
It varies by health insurer and health insurance what treatment, how many percent, or up to what amount you can claim. For more information about this, contact your health insurer.
