Although your health insurance fund will cover much of the cost of your stay and care, each patient must pay a personal contribution of the nursing day rate (regardless of room selection).

These amounts are determined by law and therefore apply to all Belgian hospitals.

The personal contribution varies depending on the length of stay and your insurance status with the health insurance fund. The amounts vary between 5.66 EUR per day and 43.20 EUR per day. This amount is independent of your choice of room. You only pay a portion of the nursing day rate.
