Josef Höfler from Staburo participated as statistical expert in an advisory meeting at the institution of “Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss” in Berlin, in the context of health technology assessment.
The Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) is the highest decision-making body of the joint self-government of physicians, dentists, hospitals and health insurance funds in Germany.
It issues directives for the benefit catalogue of the statutory health insurance funds (GKV) for more than 73 million insured persons and thus specifies which services in medical care are reimbursed by the GKV.
