To participate, the insured have to enrol in a model for at least one year. The model obliges that they always consult a general practitioner first. If health insurances formulate appropriate contracts, this new way of medical care will improve patient-orientation in primary care. To find out if any improvements are evident, a survey was conducted. The results of the survey show that the respondents hardly notice any big differences between. Furthermore, gatekeeping-models are a possibility to reduce the segmentation of the health care system and promote the competition between health insurances and between health care providers and health insurances. Due to many regulations in § 73b SGB V the implementation of gatekeeping-models neither a reduces the segmentation nor promotes the competition between health insurances and health care providers.deBitte wählen Sie eine Lizenz aus: (Unsere Empfehlung: CC-BY)Gatekeepingpatient-orientationGermanySurvey610Dissertationurn:nbn:de:gbv:46-00102417-16
