In 2019, hospital costs per person under the Dutch Health Insurance Act (Zvw) for males amounted to an average of 1,333 euros per person for males, compared to 1,393 euros per person for Dutch females.
The Dutch health insurance system as it is now was introduced in 2006 and combines elements of both public as well as private insurance. It is mandatory to have at least a basic health insurance (in Dutch: basisverzekering) when you work in the Netherlands, because healthcare is funded through taxation of income.
