Einführung der elektronischen Patientenakte in Arztpraxen als mögliche Vorrausetzung für die Vorhaltepauschale

This procedure is a written parliamentary inquiry regarding the potential requirement for medical practices to implement electronic patient records (ePA) to qualify for specific flat-rate retention payments (Vorhaltepauschale). It seeks to clarify if digitalization of health records will become a mandatory prerequisite for receiving certain financial reimbursements. This primarily affects healthcare providers and medical practices in Germany, as it could link their financial funding to the adoption of digital health technologies.
