Health insurance card
Your digital health insurance card
As of May 2023 a.s.r. no longer automatically hands out hard copy health insurance cards. Instead, a digital card is available in the a.s.r. app, so you'll never have to worry about losing your health insurance card again. And it's also better for the environment!
About your health insurance card
Your personal health insurance card proves that you are insured for medical costs. It can also be used by healthcare professionals to claim medical costs directly to your insurance. The card consists of two sides: the front represents the company you are insured with in the Netherlands. The back displays your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), which can be used in case of a medical emergency in the European Union plus Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland. Are you staying in a different country? In that case we recommend requesting proof of health insurance.
