title: [Limits and possibilities of counseling in the general practice of the established physician].
abstract: The resources and instruments available to the office-practice physician fail to come up to the postulate of "rehabilitation of the person". The decentralized system of social protection administration has resulted in areas of competence of medically unclear definition, which is the background of frequent attempts to shift costs on to other institutions. Bureaucratic procedures are highly intricate and lacking in practicality, possibilities for community service provision, for improvement of the labour market situation and for comprehensive care of the disabled are not available to a sufficient degree in the present system.
