If discussing your complaint does not, in your opinion, lead to any or sufficient results, you can submit a formal complaint by completing the form below. The complaints officer will process your complaint and will send a confirmation of receipt within 10 working days. They will begin handling your complaint by initiating an independent investigation. The officer will aim to resolve your complaint promptly, no later than 6 weeks after submission, and to your satisfaction, in accordance with the guidelines of the Wkkgz. They can also advise you on submitting and formulating a complaint. This service is, of course, free of charge.
If we are ultimately unable to resolve the complaint to your satisfaction, you can submit a complaint to the Healthcare Disputes Committee (De Geschillencommissie Zorg). For more information, you can contact the complaints officer. You can find more details in our complaints regulations.
