Überweisende

Überweisende refers to the act of transferring something, typically money or a patient, from one entity to another. In a financial context, it signifies the process of moving funds from one bank account to another, often initiated by the account holder. This can be done electronically through online banking or mobile applications, or via traditional methods like filling out a transfer form at a bank. The term "Überweisung" itself is German and directly translates to "transfer" or "remittance."

In a healthcare setting, "überweisende" describes the referral of a patient from one doctor or medical facility to another. This usually occurs when a patient requires specialized care or a second opinion that cannot be provided by their current physician. The referring doctor, the "überweisende Arzt," provides relevant medical information to the receiving specialist to ensure continuity of care. This process is crucial for effective patient management and access to appropriate medical services. The underlying principle in both contexts is the movement of a resource, be it financial capital or a person seeking medical attention, to a different destination.
