*Konsiliarpauschale* beim Kardiologen am Anfang)
It's when a hospital is consulted by an external doctor who knows the patient (the Konsiliararzt)
So, yes, basically the cariologist (in thsi example) gets paid for being a consultant on the patient's case..
See: http://www.aerzteblatt.de/v4/archiv/artikel.asp?src=heft&id=...
Does this mean that it is because the cardiology doctor has been asked for his opinion that he gets a fee, too? Is this why some doctors are called consultants?
