    Abstract:
    Selective agreements offer the possibility to the health insurers to influence the control of care, a chance that they urgently need because of cost pressure. The concepts of care can be developed top-down and then a health insurer can make an offer. Or these concepts are developed bottom-up that means a chance for the healthcare providers who want to actively shape the medical care. An essential component for all these concepts is to be able to calculate and administrate funding and control. Pathways are necessary for controlling the treatment which not only have to be developed but also have to be put into practice. The pathway acute sacroiliac pain developed by the Lübeck doctors' network will be described here as an example of a successful implementation.
