Standardized medical prescription: content and number of sessions<\/h3><\/div>

Treatment is prescribed by means of
\n a standardized physiotherapy prescription<\/strong>
\n<\/a> which includes information on the type of treatment<\/strong>, the number<\/strong> and frequency of<\/strong> sessions<\/strong>, and the treatment prescribed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The maximum number of sessions covered per prescription varies according to the type of treatment, i.e. 8 for a common pathology<\/strong>, 64 for a serious pathology<\/strong>, up to 24 for manual lymphatic drainage<\/strong> and 32 for post-surgical rehabilitation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Serious pathologies are defined in Appendix G of the Caisse Nationale de Sant\u00e9 bylaws, and are also displayed on the back of the standardized prescription. Any pathology not included in this list, with the exception of post-surgical rehabilitation, is considered a common pathology.<\/p>\n

Foreign prescriptions must contain all the mandatory information specified on the standardized prescription, and must be written in French, German or English. Prescriptions written in other languages are returned as they cannot be processed by the CNS.<\/p>\n

Foreign doctors can download and fill out a standardized prescription to avoid any refusal. You can download it here :<\/p>\n<\/div>

Title de prise en charge<\/h3><\/div>

Validation involves the issue of a voucher by the CNS<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The “titre de prise en charge” provides information on the maximum duration of treatment, the number of sessions and the rate of<\/strong> reimbursement.<\/p>\n

Treatment must begin within thirty days of the issue of the<\/strong> claim form.<\/p>\n<\/div>
