A new survey shows that patients and physicians have less and less confidence in the health sector - despite or perhaps because of the reforms
It has become more expensive for the Germans yet. From 1 January to pay most of a higher contribution for their health insurance. But even if the country did not directly impact the health reform tracks: they are dissatisfied with the industry, to help them, even now. 60 percent of Germans think that the quality of care in recent years has become worse. While still give 59 percent of German citizens the health care system the note "good" or "very good". Five years ago there were still 77 percent of respondents. These are the main findings of a representative survey of Allenbacher pollster 1800 on behalf of the German financial services provider MLP, the "World on Sunday" in excerpts available.
This confirms a trend. All efforts of the policy despite - or perhaps because of them - lose the confidence of the insured. The German monster named health care does seem to fear even more by January. From 2009 to pay the most for the supply it. The unit contribution for legally insured was down to 15.5 percent - significantly more than the majority now pays. An authority will manage the 167 billion euro cash contribution of the new health fund. Trust has the struggle to not put health care reform. On the contrary.
This is reflected in the survey. Thus the decreased confidence in their own health insurance. 29 percent say they felt sufficiently secure. Three years ago, said that 25 per cent. Between legally insured and privately insured show significant differences: While 89 percent of privately insured say they felt well-hedged, so my only 56 percent of the legally insured.
First surveyed the Institute for demo copy Allensbach for the health report also 517 doctors. They share the skeptical view of the patients. 57 percent of physicians believe that the quality of care had in the last two or three years. According to the medical profession must be the Germans even to a shortage of doctors and emergency care settings. Two-thirds of all doctors said they expect the future with a shortage of doctors in their region.
East Germany is particularly affected. Here 94 percent expect a shortage of doctors in the West there are only 59 percent. It looks bleak in the province. In cities and regions under 100 000 inhabitants say 80 percent of doctors a lack of medical advance, in large cities about 500 000 are 43 percent. It likely will not only physicians but also skilled nurses are missing. 76 percent of the doctors expect a shortage.
With 4.3 million employees in 2006 was the ninth of each employee in Germany in the health sector operates. In the last five years, the number of employed continuously by a total of 169 000, or four percent. 10.7 percent of gross domestic product will be spent on health. And given an aging population is expected this figure to increase further.
Critical to see the doctors of the survey was also found in the health policies of the federal government: 85 percent have benefited from her "no good" impression. Just eight percent certify their good work. Worries the doctors and the introduction of the health fund. 61 percent of physicians expect that the cost pressure on doctors and hospitals will thereby increase. Only 28 percent believe that not much will change.
"The results show a clear loss of confidence of citizens and doctors in the health care system," says MLP CEO Uwe Schroeder-Wildberg. "That's why the policy reforms should tackle the structural problems instead of solving - as with the Health Fund - crowd," urges Schroeder-Wildberg.
At least, the policy provides for even more mystery in the already complex health care. Future contributions to flow legally insured in the health fund, the money after a complicated key to the health funds distributed. With the single rate for all funds of 15.5 percent of all expenditure of the statutory health insurance cover. Funds, with allocations from the fund does not require, need an additional contribution directly to their insured recover.
The survey results are in line with international investigations. To lose the German healthcare system in Europe. Collected annually in health consumer index for Germany slipped from 31 countries from the third to the sixth place from.
