Journeys with a medical transport prescription
Medical rides in Stuttgart with a prescription and transport form
We provide medical rides to a doctor's practice, clinic, dialysis appointment, or rehab/health-cure stay, provided a prescription for medical transport (transport form) from your doctor is available. Whether and to what extent your health insurer covers the cost is best clarified directly with your insurer in advance.

What you should know
Planning, process and pricing
Approval only needed for a series of journeys
For a single journey, the prescription (transport form) is usually sufficient. For a series of recurring journeys, prior approval from your health insurer is also required.
Cost coverage and co-payment
Statutory-insured patients pay a co-payment of 10% of the journey cost, at least €5 and at most €10 per journey, unless they hold a co-payment exemption (please show proof to the driver). If the fare is less than €5, you pay no more than the fare itself. The co-payment applies per journey – an outbound and a return trip count as two journeys. Privately insured patients pay for the journey themselves first and submit the receipt to their insurer for reimbursement.
