In response to beneficiary demand, the Institute of Health Assistance for DF Employees (INAS) is expanding the scope of GDF Saúde, and as of February 1, the plan will be accepted for outpatient care in clinics and laboratories in seven cities, located in the Brasília metropolitan area.
Surrounding cities that now rely on GDF Saúde are: Formosa, Planaltina, Aguas Lindas, Valparaiso, Cidade Oeste, Lausanne and Novo Gama. Initially, there will be 40 accredited clinics and laboratories in these cities, able to serve the plan. Stressing that this number is still subject to increase with the addition of other accredited persons.
For INAS CEO Ana Paula Cardoso, this is an important advance, providing more convenience to plan holders and dependents, especially those who work in Brasilia and live in cities close to DF. “We are very pleased to announce the arrival of GDF Saúde to Entorno. This initiative reflects our commitment to delivering healthcare on a broader scale, meeting the growing needs of employees and their families. By expanding the scope of care, we also reinforce our ongoing commitment to enhancing the well-being and health of our beneficiaries.”
GDF Saúde currently has more than 90,000 beneficiaries and an accredited network of approximately 2,440 partners, including 47 hospitals, more than 2,000 clinics, 22 laboratories, 1 cooperative and 5 medical associations.
Check below the list of clinics and laboratories that are already part of this expansion:
