title: [Health care contract--position from the viewpoint of small routine health centers].
abstract: The position of smaller hospitals is threatened by the new legislation concerning health insurance. The improvement of quality control and the certification of medical skills are possible ways to maintain the availability of the technical armamentarium for sophisticated operations, thus providing the possibilities for emergency treatment and maintaining at the same time medical competence in the eyes of the population, which is an absolutely necessary precondition for economic survival and future prospects.
