    Abstract:
    A survey of organizational aspects of rehabilitation clinics was part of the Pension Insurance quality assurance programme in medical rehabilitation. The goal of this survey was to strengthen the awareness for these organizational dimensions and to initiate discussion with the goal of optimizing the efficiency of the clinical working process. For the structured description of various conceptual aspects a questionnaire "Dokumentationsbogen-Konzepte" was developed and its appropriateness for the indication groups orthopaedics, cardiology and psychosomatics was examined. The focus of this examination was development of different possibilities to give feedback to the clinics. The questionnaire was appropriate for the description of conceptual aspects. Differences both between and within the indication groups were discovered. The instrument can be used in the quality assurance process.
