What Netwerk Acute Zorg NH/FL does

Netwerk Acute Zorg Noord-Holland/Flevoland (NAZNHFL) is a regional healthcare coordination body operating as one of 10 Regional Overleggen Acute Zorg (ROAZ) networks in the Netherlands, mandated under Dutch healthcare law (Wkkgz) to coordinate acute care delivery across the Noord-Holland and Flevoland provinces. The organization is legally affiliated with Amsterdam UMC, locatie AMC, which serves as the regional Level 1 trauma center and Mobile Medical Team host, and operates with approximately 24 staff. Its core functional mandate is convening the full acute care chain — hospitals, ambulance services (RAV), GP posts (HAP), mental health crisis services (GGZ), obstetric care providers, and other partners — across five sub-regions covering approximately 12,000 trauma hospitalizations, 5 PCI centers, 2 IAT centers, and 11 regional trauma centers annually.

The network's technology stack centers on the Landelijk Platform Zorgcoördinatie (LPZ), a real-time capacity dashboard pulling data from hospital EHR systems every five minutes, complemented by crisis management tooling (LCMS-GZ, CrisisSuite), training systems (Emergo Training System), outbreak surveillance (MUIZ), the national trauma registry (LTR), and digital data exchange programs (Met Spoed Beschikbaar) connecting ambulance services, GP posts, and emergency departments. Its go-to-market is event-driven network convening through focus groups, symposia, theme evenings, Trauma Nights, webinars, and publications including the annual Trendmonitor and ROAZ strategic plans. The organization runs no commercial pricing; all activities are funded through Dutch Ministry of Health (VWS) structural budgets administered via the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa), specifically OTO (Opleiden, Trainen, Oefenen) stimulus funds and per-institution coordination norms. Customer relationships are not commercial — participation by acute care chain partners is legally mandated, and the network functions as a public-good coordination intermediary rather than a vendor.

Revenue model

1. Government Funding - OTO Stimuleringsgelden: The Dutch Ministry of Health (VWS) provides structural funding through the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa) for Opleiden, Trainen and Oefenen (OTO) to improve preparation for disasters and crises. Since 2014, OTO stimulus funds have had a structural basis. The 10 regional Acute Care Networks manage these funds. Healthcare institutions submit annual OTO year plans to claim these funds.
2. Structural Budget - Network Coordination: The network receives structural funding to cover overhead costs of the Acute Care Network and regional projects organized for chain partners, based on norms per institution per sector.
