An independent guide to private medical billing
Privatärztliche Verrechnungsstelle Mosel-Saar GmbH publishes plain-language information about how private-practice invoicing and revenue cycle management work in Germany.
Making private invoices easier to understand
Based in Trier, our team works alongside private medical and dental practices in the Mosel-Saar region on the administrative side of patient billing: documentation review, GOÄ/GOZ coding, invoice preparation and correspondence.
This website exists to explain that process to patients, practices and anyone curious about how private healthcare billing works in Germany. Every page here is written for general education. It is not a substitute for advice from your treating physician, a lawyer, or a tax professional, and it is not an offer to sell or provide any paid service.
Principles behind the information we publish
Grounded in the fee schedule
Explanations are anchored to the structure of the GOÄ and GOZ, the official fee schedules that govern private medical and dental billing in Germany.
Plain language, no jargon
Billing terminology can be dense. We aim to translate it into language that is clear on a first read, without oversimplifying.
Confidentiality first
Where our administrative work touches patient data, it is handled under the confidentiality obligations that apply to medical billing offices.
No sales pressure
This site does not sell services, take payments, or push visitors toward a purchase. It is a reference resource, nothing more.
Kept up to date
We review published material periodically so that explanations continue to reflect the current fee schedules and general practice.
Regionally rooted
Our administrative work is centred on practices in the Mosel-Saar area, with our office located in Trier.
Functions behind every invoice
Rather than a single department, private billing work is typically divided across a few core functions. Here is how that is generally structured.
Documentation review
Coding & ComplianceChecks that treatment records contain the detail required to justify each billed position under the GOÄ or GOZ.
Patient correspondence
Client CommunicationAnswers written questions about invoices, explains individual line items, and manages formal objections.
Payment monitoring
ReconciliationTracks incoming payments against issued invoices and follows statutory reminder timelines where needed.
Nothing on this website should be read as a quote, offer, invitation to contract, or confirmation of any service. For information specific to your own invoice or treatment, please speak with your treating practice or contact us directly.
