Titel der Veröffentlichung: Die gleichheitswahrende Systematik bei der Einschätzung der Einzel-GdB, ihrer wechselseitigen Beziehung zueinander und bei der Bildung des Gesamt-GdB

The equality-preserving system in the assessment of the individual degree of disability (GdB), its mutual relationship and the formation of the overall GdB

Assessment in legislation on severely disabled persons is one of the focal points of experts' work in social medicine. If an individual GdB (degree of disability) of 50 is not achieved, but an overall GdB of at least 50 is sought, it comes down to the assessment of the individual disabilities, their assignment to the individual functional systems, their mutual relationships and how they as a whole have a detrimental effect on social participation. Expert reports must follow a system that „preserves equality".

The German healthcare medicine regulation (Versorgungsmedizinverordnung) and case law result in a practicable test scheme that makes the basics of medical assessment transparent and comprehensible.
