At Avant-Garde Chiropractic, we have made a deliberate choice for non-contracted care. This means that we do not enter into contracts with health insurers. Why? Because we believe this approach allows us to truly put you first and provide you with the best possible holistic care. Our focus is entirely on your well-being, not on the requirements of an insurer.
Non-contracted care reimbursed by health insurance?
A common misconception is that non-contracted care is not reimbursed by health insurers. Fortunately, this is not true. You can visit us with all insurance companies. The amount of your reimbursement depends on your policy, so please contact your insurer for details.
Your health, our priority – without restrictions
In traditional contracted care, practitioners are often bound by guidelines and reimbursements imposed by insurers. This can lead to unwanted limitations in care quality, such as:
- Limitations in treatment time: Insurers often set a maximum duration or number of treatments, regardless of what is best for your specific situation.
- Restrictions in treatment methods: Sometimes certain effective treatment methods are not reimbursed, which could force us to deviate from what we believe is the most optimal approach.
By choosing non-contracted care, we avoid these restrictions. This gives us the freedom to act in the best interest of your health. That means we can take the time necessary during each session for a thorough diagnosis and effective treatment, without watching the clock.
Holistic care versus the ‘compartment thinking’ of insurers
Your body is a complex and interconnected system. Pain or symptoms in one area may originate from a completely different part of the body. Our holistic approach recognises these connections and enables us to identify and treat the underlying cause of your complaints, rather than just addressing the symptoms.
The ‘compartment principle’ used by insurers, where care is divided into strict disciplines or limited sessions, does not align with our view of complete and integrated care. We believe this fragmentation can reduce treatment quality. By operating independently of these limitations, we can create personalised treatment plans fully tailored to your unique needs and goals.
What does non-contracted care mean for you?
A frequently asked question is: what does this mean for costs and reimbursements?
- Transparent pricing: With us, you always know what to expect. Our fees are clear and transparent, with no hidden charges.
- Reimbursement through supplementary insurance: You can visit Avant-Garde with any insurer. If you have supplementary insurance for chiropractic or physiotherapy, you will in most cases receive (partial) reimbursement. Contact your insurance provider for more information regarding your coverage.
- No referral needed: You do not need a referral from your general practitioner to visit us, allowing fast access to care when you need it most.
We always advise you to check your policy conditions or contact your insurer beforehand for clarity regarding your reimbursement. This ensures you are fully informed about your personal situation.
