Efficient charging and billing requires that the administrative data of the patient (in case of main admission and Art. 33bis: INSZ number, admission status, address data), of the requesting lab are correctly mentioned on the application form.
Please also report changes in the administrative data of your lab and your charging/billing service to us proactively via dienstvoorhetbloed@rodekruis.be as much as possible. This will allow us to keep your information up to date, thus avoiding incorrect billing.
Please send your questions regarding our applied rates by e-mail to tarifering@rodekruis.be.
Your questions regarding billing can be sent directly to the Finance Department at Belgian Red Cross-Flanders, preferably by e-mail to invoices@rodekruis.be.
