[Ambulatory PTCA--a judicial consideration].
According to the German law it is legal that PTCA is performed by health service physicians at an outpatient standard and not only in hospitals. In legal terms as they are described in the social law code (SGB-V) we should not use any longer the words outpatient versus inpatient. In legal terms "outpatient" means all physicians working outside a hospital in their own practice. Instead of outpatient we should use the word "in private practice".
