Stichting Kruispost Amsterdam

What Stichting Kruispost Amsterdam does

Stichting Kruispost Amsterdam is a Dutch nonprofit foundation (Stichting) founded in 1980 and registered in Amsterdam (KvK 41202576), operating a medical post that delivers free primary and specialty healthcare to uninsured, undocumented, homeless, and elderly migrant residents who are excluded from the Dutch regular healthcare system. The organization provides a comprehensive service portfolio including general practitioner care (Huisartsenzorg), psychosocial support (including POH GGZ and psychological consultations), dental care, eye care, physiotherapy, and emergency care triage, delivered primarily through walk-in consultations at its central Amsterdam location on Oudezijds Voorburgwal.

The clinic is staffed by approximately 85 volunteer healthcare professionals — including GPs, dentists, physiotherapists, dental assistants, and specialists — supported by a small permanent staff of seven employees covering management, administration, and GGZ. Technology is limited to a standard Dutch primary care EHR (HiX Huisartseninformatiesysteem); there is no proprietary technology platform. The organization also runs structured internship programs for medical, dental (ACTA), physiotherapy, and communication science students. The website is published in six languages (Dutch, English, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian), reflecting the demographic breadth of the population served.

Kruispost operates as a charitable foundation with a donation-based revenue model. All services are provided free of charge; for physiotherapy, only a voluntary €5–€10 contribution is requested. Revenue streams include individual and organizational donations, possible municipal subsidies from Gemeente Amsterdam, and reimbursements of 80%–100% of care costs for eligible uninsured or uninsurable patients via the CAK-administered SOV and OVV schemes. The organization is exploring a physical relocation to a new, larger facility near Overtoom in mid-2026. No revenue figures, funding rounds, or financial disclosures are publicly available.
