Is additional insurance required for a vasectomy reimbursement?

In the Netherlands, it is important to know that a vasectomy is usually not reimbursed as standard under the basic insurance. This means that you have to pay the costs yourself, unless you have additional insurance that covers this procedure. Health insurers use different reimbursement arrangements, depending on the type of policy you have taken out.

Do you have additional insurance? Then it is good to check your policy conditions. In some cases, additional insurances cover the costs (partially or fully) of a vasectomy. This may depend on the coverage you have chosen and the specific conditions of your health insurer. Please note that there is often a maximum amount that is reimbursed and you may have to pay a personal contribution. It is therefore wise to contact your health insurer in advance and ask for the exact reimbursement. If you are not additionally insured, this means that the costs of the procedure are entirely at your own expense.
