The transmission is mainly for the purpose of billing for services rendered to you, for clarification of medical questions and questions arising from your insurance relationship. In individual cases, data may be transferred to other authorized recipients.
4. STORAGE OF YOUR DATA
We only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to carry out the treatment.
Due to legal requirements, we are obliged to keep this data for at least 10 years after completion of the treatment. Other regulations may provide for longer retention periods, for example 30 years in the case of X-ray records as per Section 28, paragraph 3 of the X-ray Regulation.
