DK Medcom General Practitioner And Specialist Identification
Description
In the health care service, the general practitioners act as “gate-keepers”
with regard to hospital treatment and treatment by specialists. This
means that patients usually start by consulting their general practitioners,
whose job it is to ensure that they are offered the treatment they need
and that they will not be treated on a more specialized level than
necessary.

physiotherapists, psychologists etc. in Denmark can be found in
Yderregisteret (Danish) and/or in The Health Service Organisation
Registry (Danish: Sundhedsvæsenets Organisationsregister - SOR).
