Do you want to make a significant impact in helping to improve healthcare? Do you see yourself working at a modern digital platform that helps patients get the right care in the right place every day?

How can you continually improve healthcare in the Netherlands? How do you make extra time and space for patients, and give them more attention? These are the sort of questions that are central to our work at ZorgDomein. We develop smart technology to create more room for human work in healthcare. That’s how we help healthcare professionals such as family doctors, physiotherapists and lab technicians to do what they do best: give patients the best possible healthcare. We have been doing just that for 25 years.

In fact, in 2024 our platform was used nearly 24 million times to refer or request research for patients. ZorgDomein is an established name in the Netherlands, but for us the adventure has only just begun.
