The GP

You can always visit your GP. They know who you can ask for help and can also refer you to addiction care.  

 

 

Addiction care (GGZ)

Addiction care institutions require a referral from your GP.
 
After registration with addiction care, an intake follows in which the most suitable care is determined. The plan of action is determined together with you. Treatment in addiction care often takes place without day care.
 
Treatment at a regular institution is reimbursed by basic insurance. You only pay your 'eigen risico'.
