Tax points
Tariffing according to Dentotar
Our dental practice follows the DENTOTAR tariff system of the Swiss Dental Association SSO. Dentotar was developed with the Medical Tariff Commission and has been in force since January 1, 2018. It includes more than 500 individual services (= tax point number). The tax point number reflects the time required, but also the level of difficulty of a specific dental service. The cost of a service is made up of the tax point number (TP) multiplied by the tax point value (TPW).
Our rates are as follows:
Treatment by a specialist dentist: 1.25 tax point value
Dental hygiene: 1.15 tax point value
Insurance benefits (UV, MV, IV, social services): 1.0 tax point value
Compulsory services of the compulsory health insurance (OKP) are not affected by this tariff revision. The old tariff with the tax point value of CHF 3.10 (tax point value KVG) applies there until further notice.
Supplementary health insurance for dental treatments (according to VVG) is billed according to the revised tariff and the invoice can be submitted to the health insurance companies as before.
