German term

Fremdröntgen

German to English Medical Medical (general) Medical Invoice
I have a German medical invoice that lists in the services billed for the following:

"Beurteilung-Fremdröntgen"

I haven't been able to track down this specific type of X-ray. Has anyone seen this before? Any insights appreciated!

Thanks!

With uyuni Not the facility is assessed but the x-ray produced by such third party.
uyuni Jul 7, 2012:
Omit *facility* here: It does not mean that the patient was sent to another institution. In this case there would be no need to establish a new finding (*Beurteilung*) because the patient would return with a written report.

It usually means that the doctor invoices his finding on an X-ray that was taken elsewhere in the past, which the patient brought to the consultation . So it means the image itself, not the facility/institution.

agree Lirka : yes, but I'd phrase it as "X-ray from an external institution, or even just "external X-ray", just as "deppert" as the DE original :)

agree Anne Schulz : "outside" or "external"; the other options may be too specific (does not have to be a practice, and could be any radiologist whom the patient or his GP chose to see)
