Billing
Tarif 590
Tarif 590 standardizes outpatient complementary medicine services in Swiss supplementary insurance. Recognition, reimbursement, and licensing remain separate topics.
Reference pages for terms that appear in PRAXSYS around appointments, patient data, tariffs, invoices, and payments.
Topics
These pages cover Swiss billing, recognition, and practice setup where they affect daily practice administration: which identifier belongs on invoices, when a cost approval is documented, what registers and quality labels do, and how QR-bills fit into payment workflows.
They are for preparation and orientation. Binding information remains with the responsible registries, insurers, associations, authorities, and professional advisors.

Identification
The ZSR number identifies medical service providers in the Swiss provider register. For billing and insurer communication it must match the practice, activity, and current register status.
Cost coverage
KOGU is a cost approval in a specific treatment context, with rules depending on specialty, payer, prescription, deadlines, and written confirmation.
Recognition
EMR is a quality label and directory for empirical medicine. Patients and insurers can use it when checking recognition; invoices still need complete and consistent billing data.
Recognition
ASCA is a quality label for complementary medicine. Practices need to keep recognition, continuing education, method, and invoicing clearly separated.
Association and quality
NVS is a professional association for naturopathy and complementary therapy; SPAK is the quality label in the NVS environment. Membership, label, and invoice data must be understood separately.
Payments
The QR-bill combines readable payment data with the Swiss QR Code. It only becomes reliable when master data, invoices, and payment tracking fit together.
Practice setup
Before launch, more than permits need to be clarified. Practice software depends on master data, services, tariffs, payment process, data protection roles, and a tested workflow.
