What MediDOK does
MediDOK Software Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH is a German healthcare IT company founded in 1998/1999 and headquartered in Dossenheim, Germany, specializing in document and image archiving software for outpatient medical practices (Arztpraxen), Medical Care Centers (MVZs), and clinics. The core platform, mediDOK 2.5, is a modular archive system that ingests medical images via DICOM (X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, endoscopy), scans paper documents into searchable PDF/A, and stores structured electronic physician letters (eArztbrief). It interfaces with practice management systems (PVS) through GDT and a REST API, and is certified for the German Telematikinfrastruktur including the Gematik ePA-für-alle electronic patient record and KIM-based communication channels.
The product family is tiered across SCAN STARTER, SCAN, BASIS PLUS, BASIS DICOM, and PACS configurations, with add-on modules covering PACS imaging, biometric eForms (eIDAS-compliant AES with ISO/IEC 19794-7 biometric capture), QR-Service automation, the mobile PhotoApp (iOS/Android), the ScanApp for Plustek eScan hardware, the eTerminal patient self-service kiosk, and the Patientenportal for patient-mediated data sharing. A universal DICOM viewer is embedded into third-party ECM platforms via partnership. The company also operates an OCR capability (OptionPack 2020) for text extraction and content search across scanned documents.
Commercially, MediDOK sells primarily via perpetual software licenses, supplemented by recurring software maintenance contracts (Softwarepflegevertrag) that bundle updates and support. The company does not sell directly; it distributes through approximately 50 authorized sales and implementation partners across Germany that handle quoting, installation, and local support. In September 2025, MediDOK was fully acquired by medatixx GmbH & Co. KG, the leading German ambulatory PVS vendor serving roughly 27% of outpatient physicians, and the company continues to operate under the mediDOK brand with its own four managing directors and an active product release cadence.
