About Stiftung UPD - Stiftung Unabhängige Patientenberatung Deutschland

The UPD Foundation was established in 2024 on a legal basis as a non-profit organization. Its goal is to support people in navigating the healthcare system and making self-determined decisions about their health, thanks to an independent advisory service. We advise everyone. Whether privately, publicly, or uninsured: We at the Foundation for Independent Patient Advice Germany advise everyone free of charge on their individual concerns. We take the time it takes. Those seeking advice can remain anonymous. We answer health questions, help with difficult decisions, and support in resolving conflicts. We have only one thing in mind: the interests of the people who seek our advice. We advise professionally. Our team brings together professional patient advisors from various fields. They are experienced specialists and contribute legal and medical knowledge, as well as well-founded expertise in social security and psychosocial areas to the consultation. We advise independently. We support people who seek our advice and remain completely independent in doing so. This is because our advice is not influenced by pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, authorities, clinics, or other institutions. We are committed to this.
