[A concept for the psychosomatic clinic in Bad Aussee].
For the first time in Austria a large psychosomatic hospital with 120 beds is in planning. It shall be closely connected to the newly constructed general hospital Bad Aussee. By applying a cooperative approach multiple economic, financial and technical-medical synergies are intended. Also middle- and long-term savings for the social insurance system are expected by specialised psychosomatic treatment programmes that should help reduce disease chronification as well as related health care costs. Such a treatment approach needs to take into account the patient's personal history, his value system, his various resources and intentions, psychodynamic factors and the course and severity of the disease. With this new hospital we strive for a psychosomatic department that is adequately equipped and adequately large to offer indication-specific treatment programmes for a broad range of psychosomatic disorders.
