[Integrated Health Care--fundamental change of paradigms].
Integrated Health Care provides new opportunities to overcome the traditional separation of inpatient and outpatient care in Germany. In this paper from the view of the government, one of the most dedicated and involved originators of the legislative formulation takes the opportunity to outline the purposes and expectations of the government and parliament in implementing the new regulations. Those purposes are high-quality health care for patients, relief of bureaucracy for health-care providers and economically reasonable conditions for payers.
