TechPro and the German hospital information system market
In Germany, a hospital information system is a Krankenhausinformationssystem (KIS). It is one of the most demanding markets in Europe: connection to the Telematikinfrastruktur, the electronic patient record (ePA), DRG billing with health insurers, strict cloud rules and German throughout.
We are honest about where we are: TechPro is not available in Germany today. This page explains what an entry would involve, for clinic groups and MVZ operators interested in a partnership.

Why Germany is different
German hospitals bill statutory health insurers under the G-DRG system and exchange data with them electronically, with formats defined in law. Practices and hospitals must connect to the Telematikinfrastruktur run by gematik, which carries e-prescriptions and the ePA that every insured person has had by default since 2025.
Cloud use for health data is tightly regulated. Section 393 of Book V of the Social Code requires cloud services processing health data to hold a BSI C5 attestation, and hospital laws in each federal state add their own rules. The Hospital Future Act (KHZG) funded a wave of digital projects that raised expectations of what a KIS should do.
What a German KIS must provide
German language
Interface, documents and support in German.
Telematikinfrastruktur
TI connection, ePA, e-prescription and qualified electronic signatures.
DRG billing
G-DRG coding and electronic data exchange with insurers.
Cloud attestation
BSI C5 for cloud processing of health data.
State hospital law
Rules on data processing that differ by federal state.
Certified components
gematik approval for TI-connected components.
German requirements in summary
| Area | What applies | How TechPro approaches it |
|---|---|---|
| Personal data | GDPR (DSGVO), BDSG, state hospital laws | Consent and access controls exist; state-law mapping needed |
| Cloud | §393 SGB V: BSI C5 attestation for cloud processing of health data | Not in place; required before any cloud deployment |
| Telematikinfrastruktur | gematik specifications, ePA, e-prescription | Not built |
| Billing | G-DRG and insurer data exchange | Not built |
| Critical infrastructure | BSI requirements for larger hospitals | Would apply to larger customers |
A summary for orientation, not legal advice. Each requirement is confirmed with local counsel during scoping.
Our position on Germany
Entering Germany would mean building a German country pack from the ground up: localisation, TI and ePA, DRG billing and C5-attested hosting. That is a multi-year investment that only makes sense with a committed partner.
If you run a clinic group, MVZ network or specialised provider and are interested in a co-development partnership, we would welcome a conversation. We will not suggest TechPro is ready when it is not.
Why we are telling you this
Many vendors list every country on their website. We would rather be clear: Germany has some of the most specific hospital IT requirements in Europe, and a credible entry takes certification, integration and localisation that TechPro does not yet have. If you are a provider who wants an alternative to incumbents and is prepared to co-develop, we are interested. Otherwise, this page is here so you know where we stand.
If we proceed
Time overlap
Germany is 3 hours 30 minutes behind IST in summer, 4 hours 30 minutes in winter.
Partner
A German implementation and certification partner would be essential.
Hosting
C5-attested EU cloud or on-premise.
Language
German localisation by native clinical translators.
Starting in Germany: a scoping study first
Germany is exploratory. We welcome partnership discussions but do not offer TechPro for German deployment today.
