Private service agreement
Private service: lipoprotein(a), once
Why this one is not covered
Lipoprotein(a) is measured once in a lifetime and changes how your risk is calculated, which matters because your father had a heart attack at 58. The statutory catalogue does not list it for people without known cardiovascular disease, so it cannot be billed to your insurer.
Everything else from today, the visit, the blood pressure, the other blood values, the vaccination and the two prescriptions, is covered. Your app, the plan and the explanations cost you nothing: the practice pays for them.
What it costs
- GOÄ 3730Lipoprotein(a), immunological determinationFactor 1.1518.63 €
- GOÄ 250Blood drawFactor 1.154.67 €
- Total, payable by you23.30 €
What this means
- You decide. Declining changes nothing about your treatment today.
- You sign before the blood is drawnGerman law requires a written agreement on a private service before it happens.
- You get an invoice from the practice, not from your insurerSome private supplementary policies reimburse it; ask yours.
Prices from the German scale of fees for physicians (GOÄ), at the factor the practice applies. Required before a service outside the statutory catalogue, §18 of the federal agreement between physicians and statutory insurers.
