[Tagging] insurance health

[Marc Gemis]

Hello,

I created the preset as we needed something to map offices of

* Christelijke Mutualiteit (CM) https://www.cm.be/ - on Wikipedia:
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landsbond_der_Christelijke_Mutualiteiten
* Socialistische Mutualiteit https://www.socmut.be/
* Liberale Mutualiteit https://www.lm.be/
* Onafhankelijk Ziekenfonds https://www.oz.be/
* there is one other

They are not insurance companies as Allianz (which was mentioned in
this thread).
According to CM (https://www.cm.be/over-cm/wie-zijn-we) they offer all
kinds of services (some kind of outreach programs related to health &
family) and even state that they are social movement.
They also have shops where you can buy/rent e.g wheelchairs, diapers
for adults, etc.
When you are injured and cannot work for longer periods, you have to
go to one of their offices and get checked by one of their doctors.

More info on the Wikipedia page:
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziekenfonds_(Belgi%C3%AB) -- In Dutch.
It's a health fund, and every adult Belgian needs to have one.


Perhaps we should use a different tag for them. Open to suggestions.

regards
