In 2019, Germany launched DiGA, a so-called Apps on prescription, for digital health applications. In 2022, DiPA (Digital Nursing Application) was introduced. The approved applications are listed and visible to everyone in the DiGA and DiPA directories. In this webinar, you will also hear about the other options to get your device into the reimbursement system.

This webinar is a great opportunity to gain an understanding of the German reimbursement landscape and what you need to consider when entering the German market. You will learn about the different reimbursement options, and what it means from a Finnish health tech company’s perspective. The webinar will also cover the latest developments around reimbursement.
