Economic Sectors

Health / Social Services

The healthcare and social services system, as the second-largest job market in Germany, has been redirected to rely on a form of financing governed by a market economy and competition. This replaced the “full cost coverage principle” that applied until the early nineties. These structural changes have led to competition on price and the evolution of submarkets. The healthcare and social services sector has also been one of the most significant growth markets worldwide. As demographic change continues and society ages, this sector will become even more important.

Hospi­tals, reha­bi­li­ta­tion faci­li­ties, elder care faci­li­ties and other health­care ser­vice pro­vi­ders are facing con­stant new chal­len­ges in this set­ting. Ongoing reform and espe­cially the con­stantly chan­ging legal environ­ment apply intense pres­sure to the indu­s­try. Today’s hospi­tal sec­tor in Ger­many is domi­na­ted by issues like how to finance necessary invest­ments in an era of tight pub­lic fun­ding, verti­cal and hori­zon­tal coope­ra­tion to leverage syn­ergy effects and expand the range of ser­vices, and cor­po­rate restruc­tu­ring by out­sour­cing ser­vices not rela­ting to pati­ents.
