The hospital's diagnostic and treatment infrastructure includes CT, MRI, cardiac catheterization laboratories, endoscopy suites, ultrasound (Doppler/Duplex), EEG/EMG/ENG, and radiology, with a focus on minimally invasive ("Schlüsselloch") surgery and interventional cardiology certified by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Kardiologie (DGK).

Patient-facing distribution is anchored by the 24/7 Central Emergency Department (ZNA) handling 20,000+ patients annually, five wholly-owned MVZ outpatient clinics across Mettmann/Erkrath/Wülfrath, Doctolib online booking, and co-located KV ambulatory emergency practice.

Revenue is generated primarily through the German DRG (Diagnosis-Related Groups) reimbursement system paid by statutory health insurers (GKV), supplemented by Wahlleistungen (private optional amenities such as Chefarztbehandlung and Comfort Station rooms 3E and 4E), emergency and ambulatory service fees, MVZ outpatient revenue, and ancillary income from the in-house Brasserie904 restaurant/kitchen that also caters external facilities. The hospital is a member of the Clinotel Krankenhausverbund quality network and is currently executing a multi-story new building construction project with completion targeted for 2028 to support growing patient demand.

Revenue model

1. Acute Care (DRG Reimbursement): German hospitals operate primarily under the DRG (Diagnosis-Related Groups) system, where statutory health insurers (GKV) reimburse hospital services based on fixed case rates. This covers the core inpatient treatment revenue.
2. Optional Amenity Charges (Wahlleistungen): Patients can voluntarily purchase additional services not covered by statutory insurance: chief physician treatment (Chefarztbehandlung), single or double rooms with upgraded hotel-style furnishings, and accommodation for accompanying persons. These are billed separately as private pay.
3. Emergency and Ambulatory Services: Emergency department services billed through the standard emergency care pathways, plus ambulatory treatments and diagnostic procedures provided through the MVZ outpatient clinics and outpatient operations (ambulantes Operieren).
4. Catering and Hospitality: The hospital operates its own kitchen and Brasserie904 restaurant, serving patients, visitors, and external guests. Additionally, the kitchen supplies external facilities including kindergartens, primary schools, and care homes.
