title: [Epidemiology and socioeconomic consequences of migraine and headache diseases].
abstract: The paper describes the situation of traditional headache therapy on the basis of up-to-date empirical data on headache epidemiology, the habits of the persons affected, and the economic consequences for employers, health insurance funds and society in general. It also describes for the first time the direct costs of in-patient headache therapy in a traditional treatment context without specially organized therapy on the basis of actual invoicing between hospitals and health insurance funds.
