Evangelisches Zentrum für Altersmedizin

What Evangelisches Zentrum für Altersmedizin does

Evangelisches Zentrum für Altersmedizin (EZA) is a geriatric specialty hospital and day clinic located at Weinbergstraße 18-19 in Potsdam, Germany, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alexianer GmbH, one of Germany's largest denominational healthcare providers. The facility provides acute medical, early rehabilitative, and palliative treatment to elderly patients — primarily aged 70+ and often over 80 — through approximately 89-100 inpatient beds and 20 day clinic treatment places, treating around 2,500 patients annually with a typical inpatient stay of 10-17 days. Care is delivered by a multidisciplinary team covering geriatrics, internal medicine, acute and chronic neurology, gerontopsychiatry, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, neuropsychology, nutritional and diabetes counseling, social services, and pastoral care, with a dedicated Dementia Center and DDG-certified diabetes care. The hospital is recognized as a leading dementia center in Brandenburg and serves as an academic teaching hospital (Akademisches Lehrkrankenhaus) of the Medizinische Hochschule Brandenburg (MHB).

EZA is integrated into the Christliche Kliniken Potsdam verbund — confirmed by the Bundeskartellamt in April 2023 — alongside Alexianer St. Josefs-Krankenhaus, Oberlinklinik, and Christliche Altenhilfe Potsdam, sharing a Pflegeschule (nursing school) and back-office functions in hygiene, sterilization, and quality management. The business model is reimbursement-driven: the primary revenue stream is statutory health insurance (GKV) via DRG-based inpatient billing, supplemented by private insurance and Wahlleistungen (single/double rooms, Chefarzt treatment) and day clinic services partially covered by health insurance with minimal co-payment. Patients enter via physician referrals (Hausarzt/Facharzt), hospital transfers, and emergency admissions, with day clinic patients transported by an external service. The legal entity, Alexianer Evangelisches Zentrum für Altersmedizin GmbH, is registered with Amtsgericht Potsdam (HRB 14646 P) and is privately held as a GmbH within a non-profit (gemeinnützige) verbund structure; Regionalgeschäftsführer Alexander Mommert oversees operations alongside Chefarzt Dr. med. Manuel Anhold, with a comprehensive renovation program underway through end of Q1 2026.
