Zusammenhang des Antrags- und Bewilligungsgeschehen in der psychosomatischen Rehabilitation mit der regionalen medizinischen und psychotherapeutischen Versorgung in Westfalen

Abstract

The results show that decisions on applications for psychosomatic rehabilitation basically depend on the personal health situation of the applicants. An increased application and approval rate in areas with poor medical care can be interpreted as compensatory means which indicate a need for improvement in regional care of mental disorders.
