Press Search 'zoeken' and the table will show the applicable rate(s).

In addition to rates for 'consulten', there are rates for a small number of other activities such as peer consultation ('intercollegiaal overleg') for the benefit of the treatment.

Should you cancel or modify your appointment with at least 24 hours' notice, no charges will be incurred.

However, if you cancel with less than 24 hours' notice, you will be invoiced for the missed appointment at a rate equivalent to 40% of the scheduled appointment's cost. Please note that health insurers do not cover missed appointment fees.

The rates charged for consultations in mental healthcare are based on the idea that the practitioner spends face-to-face time with the patient, with the implicit assumption that additional time is required to document the consultation in the patient file. Nevertheless, it is important to note that for consultations, it is the duration of the face-to-face time between the practitioner and the patient that determines the rate that will be charged.

As each individual's needs vary and costs are calculated on the basis of time spent, please keep in mind that your unique care requirements will ultimately decide the final price. Please refer to the '2023 Commonly Used Product Codes and Rates' section below for more information.

At Praktijk Lastage, you will receive a detailed invoice by email every quarter and/or at the conclusion of your treatment. We prefer that you pay the invoice by transferring the amount using the payment link provided on the invoice.

The payment term for our invoices is 30 days, which allows sufficient time for your health insurance to reimburse the cost of our services to you. In most cases, you will receive reimbursement from your insurer before payment is due to Praktijk Lastage.
