What is GP-Centered Care?
GP-Centered Care — also known as the “Family Doctor Model” — is a special healthcare program that focuses your medical care around one primary practice: your family doctor’s office.
In practical terms, this means you come to us first for any health concerns.
We provide personal, continuous, and well-coordinated care, referring you to specialists or hospitals when needed — while keeping an overview of your entire treatment journey.
Your Benefits
Better care: We have a complete view of your medical history, treatments, and medications — making your care safer and more effective.
Fewer duplicate tests: With centralized coordination, you avoid unnecessary repeat examinations and save time.
Shorter waiting times: Many HzV contracts include faster access to specialist appointments, especially for chronic conditions.
Regular preventive check-ups: You receive structured programs for early detection and better management of chronic diseases (e.g. diabetes, high blood pressure).
More time for you: Because GP-Centered Care is better compensated, we can spend more time on counseling, questions, and your overall health needs.
Are there any downsides?
Just one — and it’s actually an advantage:
By enrolling, you agree to visit our practice first before seeing a specialist (exceptions: gynecology, ophthalmology, and emergencies).
This ensures that you always have someone coordinating your care and keeping track of the big picture
