Based on the findings from health services research, decisions can be made about benefits in statutory health insurance (GKV) and health care can be improved. Corresponding analyzes are made easier by extensive, reliable and comprehensible data. In order to improve the data situation in Germany, the legislature has created the conditions with the Statutory Health Insurance Care Structure Act to enable data from the morbidity-oriented risk structure adjustment (Morbi-RSA) to also be used for health care research purposes. The German Institute for Medical Documentation and Information (DIMDI) is responsible for preparing and making this data available. In addition to joint self-administration, institutions such as the Federal Joint Committee, the Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care and universities are also authorized to use the data. Whether the intended improvement in health care research can actually be realized must be critically questioned once the data transparency process has begun. The aim of this work is to provide an overview of the new process.
