Reimbursement of alternative practitioner services
Please find out in advance from your health insurance company whether partial or full reimbursement is possible.
Statutory health insurance:
Meanwhile, most statutory health insurances grant a subsidy for the treatment.
Enclosed a list of proportionate reimbursement by statutory health insurances: www.hpo-osteopathie.de/service~liste_krankenkassen.
Due to frequent modifications of the subsidies granted by health insurances, it is recommended to get personal information from the own health insurance.
Private health insurance:
Some private health insurances pay part of the treatment costs.
Depending on the clinical picture (acute/chronic) a treatment series of 3-4 treatments should be made. The break between the individual treatments can be weeks.
A close collaboration with the general physician resp. specialist is essential.
Reimbursement of physiotherapy services:
Billing is based on the billing rates of the individual private health insurance companies.
As a private patient, you first pay the physiotherapist’s invoice and then submit it to your health insurance company for reimbursement.
