[Cooperation between the general practice and the hospital--the 1st situation].
The Austrian health care system is characterised by highly different ways of organising and financing the hospitals and practising physicians. This has resulted in an inflation of expansive hospital beds and a quality drop and financial restriction for the more economic family doctors. Therefore a financing system based on actual achievement and provided by one single financially responsible institution for the health system is postulated, to reverse this development. Furthermore nursinghomes, rehabilitation centres, social services should be provided more efficiently.
