| | Mutual Health Insurance/Fund | Explanation:
you requested a more accurate translation for the phrase; here is my 2 cents worth. Hope it will help:
"if the request to recognize [a certain disease] as job-related is submitted by the mutual fund (or mutual health insurance) [it would have a better chance of being approved]" |

\"There are two basic sorts of insurance arrangements: mutuality and solidarity. Mutuality is the normal form of commercial insurance, in which the applicants voluntarily pool their risk on the basis of the perceived risk of each at the time they enter the pool. The funds then pay claimants either on the basis of their loss or the sum assured. \"

What is mutuality?
A system where an organisation is owned by its members and run in their interests. There are no outside shareholders wanting a slice of the profits. Building societies are mutual bodies, and so are friendly societies*. Some life insurance companies such as Standard Life are also mutuals*. However mutual life insurers are a dying breed - even Scottish Widows has been bought by Lloyds Bank. And Friends Provident has ditched mutuality.

Explanation:
De opdracht en rol van een mutualiteit kan zowel in ruime zin als in enge zin omschreven worden. In ruime zin is een mutualiteit een solidariteitssysteem dat de belangen van haar leden behartigt, door enerzijds te streven naar voorzorg, solidariteit en onderlinge hulp en door anderzijds opt e treden als geprofileerde drukkingsgroep binnen de sociale en politieke arena.
In enge zin is een mutualiteit eenn wettelijk erkende verzekeringsinstelling in het kader van de ziekte- en invaliditeitsverzekering; één van de takken van onze sociale zekerheid. Haar aktiviteiten situeren zich op volgende vlakken:
- de verplichte ziekte- en invaliditeitsverzekering;
- de vrije en aanvullende ziekteverzekering
- de facultatieve diensten
- de socio-culturele diensten.
