[Application behavior and disability in ambulatory care according to SGB XI. A structural regional approach].
A REGIONAL ANALYSIS: The target of this task undertaken by a geographer was an analysis according to limited regional areas, of application for and demands on benefits granted by the statutory social long-term care insurance body, and hence an interdisciplinary estimate. Definite differences between individual areas in Schleswig-Holstein were seen, and it was partly possible to explain why such differences exist. The infrastructure, the housing space ownership conditions and individual self-assessment are essential factors when applying for benefits. Identification of the geography of the relevant residential location was effected by the individual zip code. In 79.8% of the cases included in a random test the locations were clearly defined. The combination of geography and epidemiology enables a clear allocation of medical phenomena also for further research concerning differences between well-defined areas.
