17.03.2025 17:30
In addition to reforming emergency care and hospital structures, primary care must be addressed as a third structural reform of healthcare policy in the new legislative period. A high-performing primary care system is the foundation of a sustainable healthcare system. The German Association of Managed Care (BMC) urges that this key reform project be placed on the healthcare policy agenda.
„We finally need clear framework conditions for a primary care system that connects all stakeholders, ensures access to care, and guarantees effective patient management,“ demands Prof. Dr. Lutz Hager, Chairman of the Board of the BMC. „It’s about a holistic system that involves patients, physicians, and other healthcare professionals equally and offers coordinated, tailored solutions for integrated care.“
With its call for „Primary Care with a System“, the BMC urges politicians and healthcare stakeholders to work together to set the right course now.
