What expertisepunt does

Expertisepunt is a privately held Dutch medical expertise firm founded in 2015 by plastic surgeon Hein ter Linden and headquartered in Zeist, Netherlands. The company provides independent specialist medical examinations and formal written reports for legal liability claims, accident and disability insurance assessments, occupational disability determinations, and court-ordered expertises. Its team comprises 9 board-certified specialists covering hand-wrist and plastic surgery, orthopedic surgery (upper/lower extremity, trauma, knee, spine), spinal surgery, and neurology — most of whom maintain concurrent clinical positions at leading Dutch centers (UMC Utrecht, AMC, Erasmus, Meander MC, Diakonessenhuis, Tergooi) and hold membership in the NVMSR, the Dutch society for medical-legal expertise.

The core product is the Medisch Expertise Rapport — a comprehensive written assessment including digital range-of-motion measurements, AMA-guide-based functional impairment calculations, digital photography, and radiodiagnostic prints. Supplementary offerings include Gecombineerde Expertise Onderzoeken (multi-specialist single-appointment examinations for combined trauma cases with integrated AMA calculation), Klein Gericht Onderzoek (KGO) for focused/lower-complexity questions, Second Opinion reviews of existing reports, and Rechtbankzaak expertise for court-appointed cases. All examinations are delivered in person at the Mobiliteitskliniek facility in Zeist, with pre-scheduled radiology at the nearby Diakonessenhuis; the firm is GDPR/AVG compliant in its handling of personal and medical data.

The business operates on a professional services, pay-as-you-go model with per-report unit pricing (KGO priced by injury complexity, combined exams priced below the sum of separate specialist exams). Go-to-market is direct B2B — referrals from Dutch insurance companies, law firms, and the courts — with no consumer marketing and no disclosed digital channel beyond the company website. Demand is described as steadily growing over 10+ years, with the firm reporting no waiting times and a target turnaround of within 3 months from request. Internal quality control is performed by the founder through six annual intervision sessions. The firm has no disclosed funding, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and operates entirely within the Netherlands.

Broad incumbents

• MediGuide America: International second-opinion and expert medical review service connecting patients/insurers with leading specialist physicians. Functionally aligned with Expertisepunt's second-opinion product line, though operating via telehealth rather than in-person clinical examination.
• Included Health: US virtual care and expert medical opinion platform (combination of Grand Rounds Health and Doctor On Demand). Comparable through its expert medical opinion offering used by insurers and employers for complex case review, though bundled with broader virtual primary/specialty care services.
• WorldCare International: Global medical second-opinion and expert medical review provider, originally founded at Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital. Comparable in delivering expert physician reviews that inform insurance, disability and treatment decisions, though not in-person or tied to legal proceedings.
• 2nd.MD (Transcarent): US-based specialist medical second-opinion and expert case review service, now part of Transcarent. Provides employer-sponsored access to specialist medical review for high-stakes clinical and insurance decisions — same fundamental activity of expert medical review, but platform/virtual versus Expertisepunt's in-person legal-medical examinations.
• Advance Medical (Teladoc Health Expert Medical Services): Global medical expert opinion network (formerly Best Doctors), now part of Teladoc Health, providing specialist review and second opinions. Comparably delivers independent physician-led expert medical opinions, though at global scale and via virtual delivery, not in-person medical-legal reports.
• Cleveland Clinic Online Second Opinion: Hospital-affiliated remote expert medical review/second-opinion program offering specialist reports on complex cases. Provides institutional expert medical opinions tied to insurance and care decisions — same core deliverable as Expertisepunt's specialist reports, delivered by a major academic medical center rather than an independent Dutch boutique.

Emerging players

• DoctorSpring: Online specialist consultation platform providing expert physician second opinions and case reviews. Shares the activity of credential-based expert medical review, but operates at smaller scale and via teleconsultation rather than in-person medical-legal assessments.

Direct peers

• Artiomed: Dutch medical-legal expertise practice providing independent specialist examinations and reports for insurance, liability and court proceedings. Most directly comparable to Expertisepunt by geography, service mix (medical expert reports for legal/insurance use), and customer segments served.

Regional players

• HandsonCare: Dutch hand-and-wrist specialist clinic mentioned in Expertisepunt's team history (a former employer of specialist Bertleff). Comparably Dutch, similarly concentrated in hand-wrist expertise, but primarily a clinical provider rather than a litigation-support expert witness practice.
