The data displays the total number of health insurance companies in the Netherlands from 2013 to 2018, by number of insured members. In 2018, there were four companies with more than one million members. The leading health insurance company was Zilveren Kruis Achmea Zorg, with a revenue of 8.9 billion euro in 2015.
The Dutch health insurance system as it is now was introduced in 2006 and combines elements of both public as well as private insurance. It is mandatory to have at least a basic health insurance (in Dutch: basisverzekering) when you work in the Netherlands, because healthcare is funded through taxation of income.
