Do you need a 26-week prognosis for the UWV? You can request one here. ZekerArbo will help you quickly.
First, this:
When applying for dismissal due to long-term incapacity for work, the UWV requests advice from the occupational physician.
The occupational physician assesses:
- whether the employee can recover within 26 weeks to return to their own work;
- whether their capacity for work will increase, decrease or remain the same during that period.
This remains a prognosis. It is not a guarantee.
The UWV always makes its own assessment. This may differ from the occupational physician's opinion.
How it works:
- Discuss with your employee that you have submitted a dismissal application.
- Explain that the UWV requests medical advice.
- We will then schedule a consultation with the occupational physician.
We prefer to schedule the appointment with the employee's own occupational physician.
Is that not possible? Then we will engage another occupational physician. The employee's consent is required for this.
During and after the consultation:
During the consultation, the occupational physician discusses the employee's health situation. The physician then answers the questions for the UWV advice.
You will receive the advice within 5 working days. The employee will also receive it in writing.
Costs in 2025:
- Consultation and 26-week prognosis advice: € 309,45
- Additional preparation with another occupational physician: € 154,65
- No-show or cancellation within 48 hours: full costs
We invoice the advice separately.
