Information supplements

The doctors in the radiology department are not contracted. This means that a legal supplement can be charged for a radiological examination, as stipulated in the coordinated Act on compulsory insurance for medical care and benefits of 14 July 1994. The supplement is not reimbursed by the NIHDI and is therefore borne by the patient.

The following supplements are applied:

• RX, mammography: maximum 15.53 euros
• Ultrasound: maximum 15.53 euro
• CT: between 20 and 37.97 euro, depending on the examination performed
• MRI: between 35 and 46.58 euros, depending on the examination performed

Before starting your CT or MR examination, you will have to sign an informed consent on this.
