Cost wise, when i did my second PSMA at Heidelberg, they gave me sheet to sign and there the price was listed, so it was upfront. PSMA was 1600 Euros. I also did not get the bill yet. Last September when I stayed overnight in the UniKlinik Heidelberg after my biopsy, I received the bill almost 3 months later. They are using an external service provider, similar to a bill collector in the states. So it takes time for them to process all the bills.

@dinu It tends to be like that at some hospitals or doctor practices here. My husband got prostatectomy in May 2021. However, the chief anesthesiologist used external billing service. They sent us the bill around February 2022. We've been to several hospitals around Stuttgart and its surrounding areas. Their billings seem to take quite sometimes, about 3-6 months. Sometimes, they send me the bills that are 12-month late. However, many private practices around the bases require their private patients to pay the bills right before they leave the offices.
