Insurance in relation to physical therapy

"We knew that the knowledge about insurance in relation to physical therapy was low, the figures clearly confirm that, we can get in our daily practice, we need to tell consumers how many treatments a person is insured which is obviously undesirable... situation, for physical therapists must be able to deal with treating and not give information about insurance. We are not insurance brokers!
Physiotherapist and as a director of the KNGF I also hope that the results of this study, the eyes of consumers and insurers open are on. Insurers could I ask to explain
Insurances even simpler and clearer Consumers I recommend to delve into the benefits of physical therapy.
Example physiotherapy more broadly in the additional package of insurance placed. then we recommend also incurring an injury to the musculoskeletal system to go. Directly to the physiotherapist They do this not only to the doctor. The physiotherapist is in fact a specialist in the field of musculoskeletal. then you know exactly where you stand and you can take action quickly in order to inform about health insurance and physiotherapy, consumers specifically KNGF has opened up a website
Whether victims actively seek professional help (and get) is barely raised. However, new research results show how important it is to take this into account. Precisely professional help and treatment can greatly reduce stress and health problems.

Unfamiliarity with physiotherapy fees

Unfamiliarity with physiotherapy fees
More than half of the Dutch do not know what their health insurance pays for physical therapy. Additionally from 7 to 10 Dutch do not know about physical therapy and excess insurance. This is the finding of the Consumers' Association and the Royal Dutch Society for Physical Therapy.
About the study

The main conclusions of the study are: - 56% of respondents do not know exactly what cost to physiotherapy be reimbursed by the insurer. - 68% of respondents do not know about the risk of the insurance with physiotherapy. - 44 % think that the first six of physiotherapy treatment are not compensated, while the majority there (additional) insurance is for. –
 The physiotherapist is evaluated with a large enough; with 68 times the figure '10 'is given. - 36% of respondents last year have been to the physiotherapist. - From group that has been to the physiotherapist said to have been treated by a physiotherapist 18% more than 2 times per month.

Empowerment of victims is crucial for recovery

Empowerment of victims is crucial for recovery
The resilience and empowerment of victims of violence, crime, accidents and disasters plays a much too small role in scientific research and assistance. That has to change, because it is precisely the ability to seek help they is very important in reducing stress and health problems. That argues Professor Peter van deer Valdes Victim logy Friday, December 20th in his inaugural address at Tilburg University.
In recent years, attention to the negative effects of crime, violence, accidents and other emergencies has grown tremendously. In it, the interest of all possible stress and health problems, which, moreover, it is known that a (small) minority of intense and there has long suffered. For the resilience and self-reliance of many victims is much less attention in the society.
 As for the fact that not all stress and health problems solely by the relevant events are determined. Studies show that suspected mental health problems are hardly bigger than imagined, are not always well received, while the message is essentially positive, Van deer Valdes.
Such important nuances even call incomprehension: thus becomes the suffering of those affected are not denied? Oddly plays in scientific research on the health effects, resilience and self-reliance of affected no dominant role. For example, studies of risk factors for stress and health problems such as PTSD, pay as little attention to.

Supply of geriatric medicine

The specialist in geriatric medicine, used within the walls of the nursing home as a nursing home working, is now also available as a consultant to the doctor and therapist for severely limited elderly and chronically ill at home.

Berenson well as the National Association of General Practitioners see this collaboration as essential to give.

In order for the future that everyone can continue to provide the necessary care and treatment specialists must geriatric medicine and social geriatricians are paid through the Health Insurance Act. Because the new law Long-Term Care (the successor to the EMEA) is introduced, and inpatient facilities for long-term care are reduced simultaneously, there will be more people with complex care needs to continue living at home. These people are entitled to special care and treatment they would receive.
Otherwise in the healthcare Specialists in geriatric medicine and social geriatricians can use their expertise to support the GP in that complex care and treatment at home, as they are already doing with limited funding from the EMEA. This view is shared by general practitioners (National Association of General Practitioners) and Axis.

According to the LHV this group should be able to rely on the specific expertise of specialist geriatric medicine and social geriatrician. These are the appointed doctors to provide this care. Social geriatricians working for years ambulatory and thus support the mental health and general practitioners in psycho geriatric issues.
