GGZ-EXTRA – Innovation in POH-GGZ

We regret to inform you that both the project and the post-HBO programme will not be launched this year.

The year 2026 will instead be dedicated to redefining the role profile of the POH-GGZ, laying a stronger and more future-proof foundation for sustainable implementation.

At the same time, professionals will gain access to a digital platform that provides real-time insight into available capacity within GP practices across the region. This enables them to directly and efficiently fill open hours.

Through this smart integration, care can be delivered immediately—both during alternative time slots and online—allowing patients to receive support faster and in a more accessible way.

The platform also supports direct billing, making administration simple and immediately relieving GP practices.

GGZ Connect demonstrates how innovation and effective change management can rapidly increase capacity, improve accessibility, and deliver flexible, demand-driven GGZ care.
