Physiotherapists

Here you will find the 2026 fees and reimbursement rates for common services provided by physiotherapists.

The fees and reimbursement rates apply to physiotherapists who have accepted the agreement with the health insurance funds (conventionalized physiotherapists). Physiotherapists who do not accept the agreement and are therefore non-contracted, determine their fee freely. The reimbursement is lower there.

Some people with a low income are entitled to the supplemented refunds and will be reimbursed more.

An overview of your CM refunds can be found in My CM and in the My CM app.

You can request information about other services via the contact form or from the local CM consultant.

  • A telemonitoring service cannot be certified for an initial treatment session. The initial treatment session must always be a face-to-face physiotherapy session.
  • These services must always be certified in conjunction with a subsequent in-person physiotherapy treatment session, and this session must not be an overrun session.
  • These services count towards the maximum number of reimbursable services at the rate of one weekly telemonitoring flat rate for every two physiotherapy sessions.
  • The number of consecutive telemonitoring services that can be certified before a face-to-face treatment session must be certified may vary depending on the rehabilitation phase and the beneficiary’s progress. However, a maximum of 4 telemonitoring sessions may be certified consecutively. After this, a face-to-face treatment session must be certified.
