German term

auf seine Kassenzulassung verzichten

German to English Medical Medical: Health Care
Es geht hier um einen Satz auf einer Bescheinigung der Kassenärztlichen Vereinigung für einen Medizinier. Die Bescheinigung ist für Großbritannien.

Meine Version " to waive the approval to practice under the compusory health insurance scheme" hört sich wohl recht schwerfällig an?

Bin dankbar für bessere Vorschläge!

I don' think you're going to be able to get away with ...

... anything shorter if you want all the pertinent information in there.

Maybe "waive his status as a panel doctor under the statutory German health insurance scheme".

CHI probably stands for something with "health" and "insurance" but wouldn't mean anything to anyone. It brings to mind those machines they used to sell on QVC that wobble all your bits about.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Susan Zimmer : is CHI not the abbreviation for compusory health insurance? That is what I'd found...but, I'm not in Britain, so don't know....

You may have a point - but "compulsory health insurance" would have to be mentioned elsewhere in the text for CHI to be understood.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Ja, das ist auch meine Befürchtung gewesen, dass dieser Begriff "CHI-physician" kein "native speaker" richtig versteht. Im Zweifelsfall also , besonders bei Realia, die ausführliche Lösung. Herzlichen Dank also und ein schönes Wochenende "
