Major Cities: 'Strict Approach to Healthcare Fraud Is Urgently Needed'

Utrecht, The Hague, and Rotterdam are urging the Dutch government to implement national measures against fraudulent healthcare providers and criminal networks. The cities argue that current local efforts are insufficient without federal action, criticizing Minister Mirjam Sterk’s plan to address the issue by 2028 as too late. They demand immediate nationwide screening and uniform admission requirements, while the 50Plus party has called for a government commissioner to coordinate the fight against healthcare fraud nationally.
