    Abstract:
    According to German civil law the physician's services rendered to the patient must be in accordance with the medical state of art, which must regularly be adapted to successfully evaluated innovations. In the German statutory health insurance most of the services are financed under budgets. Budgets do not satisfactorily reflect the growing needs of an innovative medical system. Hence, the legislative organs have to take action in order to carry out a reform of the statutory health system that enables free enterprise, competition and the patient's free choice of services.
