Have you developed an innovative medical product and want to successfully establish it on the German market? The path to reimbursement can be complex. In our workshop, we will show you how to overcome the hurdles and place your products in the Medical Aids Directory (Hilfsmittelverzeichnis) or the Directory for Digital Health Applications (DiGAs). 

This workshop is aimed at start-ups, product managers, and industry partners who wish to gain a deep insight into the processes and requirements of the German healthcare system. 

What you can expect 

In our interactive workshop, we will illuminate the crucial steps and prerequisites for successful market entry: 

  • Medical aids vs. DiGAs: Acquire knowledge about the German healthcare system, the differences between medical aids and DiGAs as well as the involved authorities and what it needs to be admitted to the reimbursement grant. 

  • Your path into the healthcare system: We will explain the application procedures, all required evidence and quality standards, as well as how you can successfully list your products in the Medical Aids Directory. Find out which criteria your product must meet to be listed in the directory. We will cover the requirements for safety, functionality, quality, and medical benefits. 

  • Statistics and Experience: Learn how to maxmize your chances. We will share experiences and provide you with practical tips on how to avoid common mistakes.

Frequently asked questions 

Does my product need to have a CE marking to participate in the workshop? 

No, we are happy to provide best support from the idea, through the European Conformity Assessment and CE mark up to being admitted to the German reimbursement system. 

Does reimbursement guarantee sales? 

Reimbursement is a crucial prerequisite for success, but it does not automatically guarantee sales. It enables doctors to prescribe your product and health insurance companies to cover the costs. However, successful market access also requires effective marketing and distribution strategies. 

Do I need to be a German company to apply? 

No, your company does not have to be based in Germany. However, your product must be compliant with all German and European regulations. Having a local partner can be very helpful in this process.
