We offer online services. If you have a smartphone you can download the AZV app from Google Play or Apple App Store. If you wish for us to help you, just email us a scan of your valid ID (valid passport or identification card or driver’s license) to our email [emailprotected]

As a parent you go to our website here at ‘Registration’ and choose to fill in the registration form. Answer all questions on the digital form completely, add a scan of your valid ID (valid passport or identification card or driver’s license) and a picture of your baby. We will process your registration and you will receive an email including instructions from us.

You can change of family physician twice in a year in the month of March and September. The procedure is as follows:

• Contact or go personally to the doctor of your choice;
• Ask them if they can take you as a patient;
• If the doctor agrees, you fill in the form and sign it at the office of your (new) doctor;
• The doctor also signs and stamps the form;
• The assistant sends the form to AZV thru [emailprotected] ;
• Or you can send it to us at [emailprotected] ;
• AZV processes the petition and you can see the change of doctor in your smartphone in the AZV app (in case you don’t have the AZV app, we invite you to download this from Google Play or Apple App Store).

A change of pharmacy is only accepted when the request is made in the months of April and October. All other requests (made in other months) must be motivated and we will evaluate this. A request for pharmacy change can be send directly thru the AZV app (thru ‘Menu’ → choose ‘Your Service providers’ → choose ‘The Service provider’s of…’ → choose in that ‘Menu’ → ‘Change of Service Provider’ → Choose there the kind of Service provider you want to change and send the request).

Whenever you have the AZV app, you can go to the Menu → choose Service Providers of ….’xxx’ (choose the name of the Family member you want to see and the name of his or her doctor will appear).

You can find his name, telephone number and sometimes his emailadress in the AZV app under the Menu → Service Providers. On this website you can find a list of Health Service Providers, choose for the listo f Family physicians/Family doctors. Another option is by asking at your doctor’s office if they have a website or are on social media for you to find information.

AZV covers eye examinations that are prescribed by your Family doctor or specialist and which takes place in the Eye Center of ImSan or at the office of doctor Burton Jacobs. AZV also covers eye exams performed by a optometrist thru a referral letter from your Family doctor. Glasses are covered when there is a dioptre of 10>.

No. And this is not because AZV doesn’t believe in pshycology sessions. This is due to financial factors. In the past, when preparing the Law AZV choices had to be made upon the AZV package. It was at that time that the decision was made to exclude pshycology.

Yes. Now you still can. But take notice that whenever you are not insured with AZV, you can’t use the card. For example, the moment you deregistrate from Census and go abroad to live. It may be possible that you still have the AZV card, but when returning to Aruba you won’t be able to use this because the service health provider will be checking into the AZV webportal to verify whether your are insured or not. Everytime you leave Aruba and then return, you will have to register again.
