Practice question Gezondheidszorg (Healthcare)
Who is eligible for healthcare allowance?
In Dutch: Wie heeft recht op Zorgtoeslag?
Choices
- Only people on benefits
- People with a low incomeCorrect answer
- Everyone in the Netherlands
- Only people over 65
Explanation
Correct answer: People with a low income
Zorgtoeslag is a contribution from the government to help pay the health insurance premium. You get it if your income is not too high. You apply for it at the Belastingdienst through Mijn Toeslagen. It is paid into your account every month. Do you have a low income? Check whether you have a right to toeslag.
Why the other choices are wrong
- Option A: You do not need to receive benefits; working people with a low income can also receive zorgtoeslag.
- Option C: This allowance is income-dependent, so people with high incomes are not eligible.
- Option D: Eligibility depends on your income and other conditions, not on being over 65.
