Prognosebeurteilung in der Privaten Unfallversicherung Teil 1

Abstract

After examining the cause of an accident the medical expert working in the area of private health care insurance under the general accident insurance (AUB) sample conditions must ascertain incapacity within a period of time that has been contractually agreed upon between the parties involved. In addition, this person must also state their position on the question as to whether there may exist any circumstances up to the latest possible point in time in insurance terms that would comprise an adequate prognosis of a future change in the long-term condition. This requires a high probability.The sole risk of the evolution of the functional deficit arising from a proven or prognosticated post-traumatic osteoarthritis is excluded from this standard of proof which means that flat-rate risk supplements are not suited to this individualized approach and thus do not apply.
