Medical - Insurance / Patient report
German term or phrase: VK-Nr.
The heading of this patient report is full of abbreviations relating to insurance (I think). I'll probably have a few more questions.

For starters:
Pat. name:
Born on:
[Then all on one line:]
**VK-Nr.** XXX Status F. KU... Schein [date] **VK** on...

Any help much appreciated!
