    Abstract:
    In order to get information about capacities of neurorehabilitation for patients with acquired brain injuries or stroke in Bavaria, a survey concerning the time interval between registration and admission of the patient (waiting period) was carried out. Structured interviews by telephone were performed and all departments of neurorehabilitation and neurosurgery in Bavaria were included. The waiting period was calculated for the last 3 years and for each phase of rehabilitation using rehabilitation phase model A-D, which was proposed by the Deutscher Verband Rentenversicherungsträger (Association of German social pension Insurancies). As a result, a significant shortening of the waiting period over the last 3 years for almost all phases of rehabilitation has been demonstrated. We therefore conclude that an over capacity may develop in Bavarian neurorehabilitation, at least in certain regions. Quantity seems to be obtained. Next goal required is control of quality.
