Setting up a medical practice or an MVZ

From an idea to a suitable structure

Setting up a practice involves decisions with lasting consequences: How do you want to work? Who will be involved? What responsibilities and financial risks will each person take on? What legal and tax implications will the proposed collaboration have?

I help you assess the legal framework for your venture and structure the collaboration. Your professional and financial objectives are the starting point. We then examine the organisational form and the agreements required.

Setting up a medical care centre

Special requirements apply to the formation, legal form and medical management of an MVZ and its participation in statutory health insurance care. A key provision is § 95 SGB V. The requirements relevant to your venture must be assessed in light of the people involved and the planned activity.

Advice therefore begins with an overview: Who wishes to establish or join the venture? What medical specialities are planned? What locations and ways of working are envisaged? What documents and decisions already exist? We then identify the company law and tax questions and any further matters requiring clarification.

How I support doctors and dentists

• Assessing the legal and tax framework for a planned practice.
• Reviewing the organisational form and contractual arrangements.
• Structuring collaboration and decision-making between those involved.
• Advising on the formation of a medical care centre.

Why should law and tax be assessed together?

A legal organisational form also has tax implications. Agreements between participants affect the financial allocation of opportunities and risks. These connections should be considered during planning so that the legal arrangements and practical implementation are aligned.

Is an MVZ the right solution for every venture?

There is no universal answer. Legal eligibility to establish one and its commercial suitability must be assessed separately. Relevant factors include the participants, care concept and proposed organisation. In the first meeting, we clarify which questions need answering for your venture.

What is helpful for the first meeting?

A brief description of the venture, the names and professional roles of the proposed participants, the planned location and existing draft agreements are a good starting point. Please mention any official decisions, authorisation documents or deadlines in your enquiry.
