The treatment and cost plan (ICP) is the basis of every dental prosthesis. If you need crowns, bridges or dentures, your dentist will draw up a treatment and cost plan. On this plan you will find information about the dental status in your mouth (findings), the standard care as well as the planned therapy and the expected total costs. The treatment and cost plan is intended to give all parties involved security of action. It will be handed over to your health insurance fund for examination, approval and subsidy determination before the start of treatment. The difference between the total cost and the fixed subsidy is your own contribution. As soon as the plan approved by the health insurance company is available, treatment can begin.

The treatment and cost plan

• is completed before the start of treatment.
• must be submitted to the health insurance fund for approval before the start of treatment.

The treatment and cost plan is divided into different sections:

• Details of the participants (practice/patient)
• Findings
• Explanation of the treatment plan
• Grants
• Cost estimate
• Bill
• Personal data taken from your insurance card.

In the declaration of the insured, confirm in each case of treatment by your signature

• membership of the above-mentioned health insurance fund
• the information provided about the nature, scope and costs of regular, similar and different care, and
• that you want the treatment according to the treatment and cost plan.
