There is generally positive response to the new care plan Minister Edith Schippers (Health VVD). The coalition, consisting of PvdA and VVD, can find themselves in the new plan. The opposition parties are positive, but also criticism. From the health world is said that more clarity should come before can really be determined whether the plans are an improvement
VVD MP Arno Rutte:.
“If you want the best patient care, if you want an affordable insurance premium. The proposed measures leads to higher quality, better affordability. The quality goes up, you will be banned if the insured more choices and bad providers. We make them better care. Insurers will also be able to offer a policy with a lower or no deductible at all, if you use a care provider who is contracted for quality by your insurer. “
Labour MP Lea Bouwmeester
“The Labour Party thinks it is a good idea that the excess can be sharply reduced. That’s good news for people who need care. Also, this removed a major concern of the Labour Party, which is that people do not go because of the cost to the hospital or pharmacy. Also in the new care plans strengthens the position of insured persons and caregivers, allowing them to offer a better counterbalance to the insurer. The Labour Party agrees that the free choice of doctor remains as it is now, does not change anything to “
Corinne Ellemeet MP Greens:
“That is more emphasis on people with chronic illness, is an improvement. But this group should be respected across the board in their healthcare costs. That the reduction of health care costs for the chronically ill is linked to the contracted care I find premature and undesirable.
Let insurers first have to prove that they are buying quality, that is hardly the case. The Minister is doing too little to mitigate the power of health insurers. Large residential institutions will they control under tightened immediately set. Therefore apply directly the number of policies per insurer back “
Arie Slob, leader of the Christian Union:
” The plans are still fresh and require study. We think it is important that people who use a lot of care, chronically ill and disabled, not the brunt of the measures. We also want more negotiating room for care providers against insurers.
There should be room for small providers and identity-related care. The letter from the Minister are many assumptions that we ask ourselves whether this will also work in practice. This is in my opinion certainly no formality, this calls for a comprehensive treatment “
Hanke Bruins Slot, Member of Parliament of the CDA:
“It’s a complex package of measures which the CDA still many questions about. We will action keys to the preservation of the free choice of doctor. “
From the medical community is particularly critical that the package needs further clarification.
National Association of General Practitioners (LHV):
“But to be able to estimate exactly what the plans mean for the patient and doctor, there is still more clarity. But good point is that the minister wants to move insurers to buy more quality. According to the LHV buy health care insurers to date mainly by price in, rather than on quality. It would be nice if health insurers manage to buy or quality “
Patients Federation NPCF sees certain good points in the letter of Schippers, NPCF director Wilna Wind:.
“But it’s still not concrete and the interpretation is not clear. The Minister example indicates that they risk selection – or young healthy people, no older chronically ill – health insurers want to tackle. “But the interpretation is not clear. Therefore we want quickly with the Minister and insurers around the table for consultation “
