"The Netherlands has a comprehensive system of healthcare services. Primary care services are generally provided by general practitioners and dentists, while more specialized care is available at hospitals. All Dutch citizens are eligible for basic healthcare services, which are provided free of charge. Private healthcare insurance is also an option, typically for those requiring additional cover for treatments or medications that are not available under the national healthcare service. Health insurance companies are also required to cover particular services, such as home care and maternity care, at no additional cost. In addition, The Netherlands has made telehealth services more accessible and is actively promoting the use of digital health solutions such as apps and remote consultations," said a member in Netherlands.
