[Quality assurance in legal social security evaluation--results and practical experiences with a quality assurance program].
In the medical department of a statutory pension insurance bureau a quality assurance programme was established and tested. This programme is based on the "integrative assessment" of sociomedical expertises by means of a catalogue of 12 quality indicators. The results of a two-year period of working with this programme are discussed. The consequences with respect to qualifying procedures are also emphasised; these are based on individual and total data. Basing on the demands be made on the quality assurance programme--especially with regard to motivation, use, minimising costs, improving quality and acceptance--the handling of the procedure must be critically assessed. In addition, the author discusses the question as to which modifications would be more appropriate and promising.
