For the year 2024, we use the rates set by the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa)

For the NZa-maximum rate (WMG) please refer to the NZa-webpage published Tariefbeschikking Geestelijke Gezondheidszorg https://puc.overheid.nl/nza/doc/PUC_752075_22/1/ and https://zorgprestatiemodel.nza.nl/

Advice: Check with your health insurer whether your treatment at a non-contracted practice will be reimbursed up to the maximum (i.e. NZa or WMG rate)!

Appointments that are not canceled on time, known as “no-shows,” are not reimbursed by the health insurance company. You can cancel your appointment up to 48 hours in advance.

Failure to cancel on time will result in a maximum charge of €90. This, of course, does not apply in the case of very serious circumstances, such as the death of a close family member, or sudden hospitalization.

It is important that the client feels comfortable with the therapist. If the client has a preference for a specific therapist we will accommodate this request to the extent possible. However, it may happen that for substantive or practical reasons another therapist is chosen, which better suits the client’s request for help.

As of 01-01-2021, Ithaca Psychotherapy Practice is a contract-free practice. This means that as of that date, we are NO have contracts with health insurers anymore.

Your treatment at Ithaca is eligible for reimbursement:

If you have a “pure” restitution policy, you will be reimbursed 100% for treatment at Ithaca.( In all cases, you must pay the legal deductible (€385)

Check with your health insurer whether your treatment at a non-contracted practice will be reimbursed up to the maximum (i.e. NZa or WMG rate)!

If you do not have a “pure” reimbursement policy, the following applies to you:

• If you have a “non-pure” restitution policy, the “market rate” will be reimbursed which is not 100% cost recovery. You can check with your insurer what percentage they reimburse.
• If you have a “naturapolis,” you will face a co-payment. Only 60%- 75% of treatment at Ithaca will then be reimbursed by your health insurance company.

• Contact the therapist at his/her 06 number if agreed and known
• Contacting your primary care physician
• Contact the crisis service 24/7 GGZ inGeest (020) 788 5333

A Skype appointment is possible. For example, if you are going abroad for a certain period of time, you may choose to have the appointments continue via Skype. However, you will always need to consult with your therapist about this first. Moreover, we do not offer Skype appointments without first meeting you within the practice. This is to ensure that a pleasant relationship can be established between you and your therapist though.
