The Dental Invoice is a fundamental document in dental practice management, serving as an official record of services rendered and charges incurred. This document is essential for dental practices operating in Malta, where it must comply with both local healthcare regulations and EU standards. It serves multiple purposes: as a financial record for accounting and tax purposes, as a medical record documenting treatments provided, and as a legal document for insurance claims and payment processing. The invoice must include specific elements required by Maltese law, including VAT details where applicable, while maintaining patient confidentiality under GDPR. It's particularly important for maintaining clear financial records, facilitating insurance claims, and providing patients with transparent billing information. The document is typically generated after dental services are provided and may be used for both immediate payment processing and future reference in patient records.
