6.5.2 Covered indications<br />
In Germany, there is an invoicing code for HBOT in the OPS (“Operationen- und<br />
Prozedurenschlüssel”) (see Table 35). However, no value has yet been attributed to this<br />
code (according to personal communication from the Aachen University Clinic (U.<br />
Siekmann, January 2008) and the HBO-Zentrum Euregio Aachen). Therefore, currently,<br />
no single indication is nationally reimbursed by the legal insurance. Some hospitals,<br />
however, may have local contracts with insurers to reimburse a number of indications<br />
at an agreed fee.<br />
