TARDOC billing for practices and clinics
Viali TARDOC is the standalone Swiss billing assistant: you describe the treatment in plain language, Viali proposes the exact positions from the official catalogues and produces the QR-bill. Without the rest of the clinic platform.
Free for 14 days — no credit card. CHF 99 per month per practice after that.

A new tariff applies since 1 January 2026
TARDOC and the Ambulante Pauschalen replaced TARMED. Different positions, new rules and a flat rate that takes precedence over single services: invoices sent without a check come back from the insurer. Viali TARDOC checks every invoice against the official catalogues before it leaves the practice.
TARDOC and Ambulante Pauschalen
The full official catalogues, in force since 1 January 2026. Viali proposes the positions and checks quantities, cumulations and rules.
Electronic submission via MediData
Validated invoices go straight to the insurer over the MediData network. Or you export them as a PDF with a QR-bill.
Hosted in Switzerland
Servers, database and backups run at Exoscale in Geneva. Patient data does not leave Switzerland.
Ready fast
Practice name, canton and email are enough to sign up. Then Viali walks you through the tax-point value, GLN, ZSR and IBAN.
Need to look up a position? The free TARDOC search finds positions and flat rates without an account.

Billing-ready in three steps
Viali walks you through the three details a valid Swiss invoice requires.
Your tax-point value
You confirm your practice's cantonal KVG tax-point value. Viali proposes the published value — confirm it or overwrite it. That is why signup asks for your canton.
Your billing identity
Your practice's GLN, ZSR and IBAN. No valid invoice can exist without them — Viali asks once and remembers.
MediData (optional)
If you want to submit to insurers electronically, request activation from inside Viali. Optional — until then you create, validate and export invoices as PDF or XML.
Describe it. Viali bills it.
A split-screen editor: the invoice form on one side, the assistant on the other — with a resizable divider. You describe in plain language what was done; the assistant searches the real TARDOC and Ambulante-Pauschalen catalogues, chooses the right tariff system and proposes the exact positions — applied with one click. It never receives patient identity or insurance data.
Tiers Garant or Tiers Payant, with a QR-bill
Tiers Garant: the patient pays the practice and forwards the bill to their insurer — the QR-bill carries the patient as payer. Tiers Payant: the practice bills the insurer directly, with an insurer recipient block and a QR-bill whose payer is the insurer. Every validated invoice produces a standards-compliant Swiss QR-bill payment part; drafts carry a clear "ENTWURF – nicht zur Zahlung" (draft, not for payment) notice.
Validate and submit electronically
One click: save → validate required fields (practice GLN/ZSR, insurer GLN, tax-point value …) → download the final PDF. If you submit electronically, validated TARDOC and Ambulante Pauschalen invoices go straight to the payer over the MediData network — no paper, no separate MediData software.
Viali's MediData integration is certified. You request your practice's MediData registration from inside Viali; MediData fees are not included in the Viali price.
- 14 days free, no credit card
- One login, unlimited invoices
- 10% off paid annually — CHF 89.10000000000001 per month
- Cancel monthly
