Frequently asked questions about Kaphingst GmbH
Does the health insurance cover the costs at Kaphingst GmbH?
Yes, with a medical prescription, many aids are reimbursed by the statutory health insurance, provided the product is listed in the medical aids catalogue and Kaphingst GmbH has a supply contract with your health insurance fund. Statutory insured persons pay a co-payment of 10 percent (min. €5, max. €10). Contact Kaphingst GmbH directly for information on cost coverage.
What is the difference between an orthosis and a prosthesis?
An orthosis is an aid that supports, stabilises or corrects an existing body part – for example a knee orthosis or an ankle brace. A prosthesis, on the other hand, replaces a missing body part, such as an amputated arm or leg. Medical supply stores such as Kaphingst GmbH in Lahntal offer both types of provision and individually fit the aids.
Does Kaphingst GmbH also offer a home visit service?
