Subsidies for Orthopedic Items
and Assistive Devices


Reimbursement of Orthopedic Products at CopernicusMed
Do you need support in purchasing orthopedic products?
Take advantage of funding provided through our physiotherapist, available under the National Health Fund (NFZ) referral system!
Who can benefit?
The subsidy is available to:
✓ Anyone, regardless of age, who visits our facility
✓ Individuals experiencing overload-related back pain
✓ Patients recovering from injuries to the knee, ankle, shoulder, hip, or wrist
✓ People suffering from chronic conditions (e.g., tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, back pain, rheumatic pain)
What medical products are eligible for funding?
✓ Knee, elbow, and wrist orthoses
✓ Support belts
✓ Stabilizers
✓ Compression bands
✓ Braces
✓ Orthopedic collars
How much is the subsidy?
The subsidy can cover between 80% and 100% of the cost of the orthopedic product.
Are there any time or financial limits on receiving orthopedic equipment?
The time limit for the same orthopedic product is 3 years – after which the product becomes the patient’s property and does not need to be returned.
There are no limits within a product category, which means you can receive different items for the same body part.
No financial limits apply per patient.
Exception: Individuals with a certified severe disability are eligible for subsidies without a time limit – e.g., every 6 months.
How can I receive the subsidy?
Just visit us or book an appointment online.
Diagnosis and the necessary paperwork take only a few minutes.
Are orthopedic products single-use?
No – the subsidized products are reusable and can be used for years.
They come with a 24-month warranty.
Do I have to fit the orthopedic equipment myself?
No – each product is individually fitted by qualified staff at the medical store located in our facility.
Don’t miss your chance for support – take care of your health and comfort with the available options!
