PURPOSE OF DATA PROCESSING

Data processing is carried out on the basis of statutory guidelines in order to fulfill the treatment contract between you and your healthcare professional and the associated obligations. For this purpose, we process your personal data, particularly your medical history and clinical data. This includes medical histories, diagnoses, therapy proposals, and findings collected by us or other physicians. For these purposes, other physicians or psychotherapists under whose care you are may also provide us with data (e.g., in medical reports). The collection of health data is a prerequisite for your treatment. If the necessary information is not provided, diligent medical care cannot be guaranteed.

RECIPIENTS OF YOUR DATA

We only transfer your personal data to third parties if this is legally permitted or required (e.g., recurring X-ray quality assurance based on radiation protection law and Art. 9(2)(i) GDPR / § 22(1)(c) BDSG) or if you have given your consent. Recipients of your personal data may primarily be other physicians / psychotherapists, Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians, health insurance providers, the Medical Service of the Health Insurance Funds (MDK), medical associations, quality assurance bodies, and private medical billing offices.
