Social-insurance dental tariff

Dental services billed to disability, military and accident insurance follow a separate social-insurance tariff, with its own point values per payer.

Definition

For the practice this means: the same treatment costs different amounts depending on the payer, and that tariff must be kept alongside the private one. Whoever knows only one tariff bills the social insurers wrongly — usually too high, which leads to rejection.

On top of that comes the cost guarantee: with social insurers it is often a precondition, and its presence belongs on the case. Without a guarantee the invoice is not enforceable.

Where to read it

What the software must be able to do

Check whether several tariffs can be kept in parallel, whether the payer on the case determines the tariff, and whether cost guarantees are attached to the case as a document.
