Adrz

What Adrz does

Adrz (Admiraal De Ruyter Ziekenhuis) is a regional general hospital in the province of Zeeland, Netherlands, providing comprehensive medical services including emergency care, inpatient and outpatient treatment, surgery, maternity, oncology, cardiology, pediatrics, and dialysis. The hospital operates across three locations: Goes (main hospital and headquarters, housing the emergency department, multiple inpatient wards, outpatient clinics, and the central DigiTuin), Vlissingen (outpatient clinics and day treatment), and Borrendamme/Zierikzee (a medical specialist care point opened September 2024). Adrz serves the population of Zeeland as the dominant hospital provider for the region, where local alternatives for specialist care are limited.

Adrz has built a digital health ecosystem including the Mijn Adrz patient portal (DigiD-authenticated), the BeterDichtbij secure messaging app, remote monitoring via Sanacoach for chronic conditions (COPD, heart failure, diabetes, asthma, IBD), a self-measurement kiosk for vital signs, digital anamnesis questionnaires, speech-to-text clinical reporting, animated patient education videos via Indiveo, and the volunteer-staffed DigiTuin program supporting patients with digital tools. The hospital has deployed AI-assisted computer vision for X-ray fracture assessment and speech-to-text conversion for clinical documentation across multiple departments. The hospital holds the highest possible Elsevier quality assessment rating, ranked 14th in the 2019 AD Ziekenhuis Top 100, and maintains ISO 15189 laboratory accreditation.

Adrz is funded through the Dutch public healthcare system, with services reimbursed via mandatory basic health insurance under nationally regulated rates set by the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa). The hospital treats approximately 30,000 emergency patients annually at its Goes location and conducts roughly 3,500 digital specialist advisory (meedenkconsult) consultations per year, with 80% of patients in those consultations remaining under GP care. Adrz reported profits of 6 million EUR in 2017 and 5 million EUR in 2018. The hospital became fully independent from Erasmus MC Rotterdam in April 2024 after seven years of affiliation and has subsequently formed new strategic partnerships with ZorgSaam (April 2025) and Melius Klinieken (July 2025) to consolidate regional hospital services in Zeeland.
