The new treatment procedures of the German Statutory Accident Insurance (DGUV) have ramifications for the injury type procedure clinics (VAV) from medical, economic and structural aspects. Whereas the latter can be assessed as positive, the medical and economical aspects are perceived as being negative. Problems arise from the partially unclear formulation of the injury type catalogue, which results in unpleasant negotiations with the occupational insurance associations with respect to financial remuneration for services rendered. Furthermore, the medical competence of the VAV clinics will be reduced by the preset specifications of the VAV catalogue, which opens up an additional field of tension between medical treatment, fulfillment of the obligatory training and acquisition of personnel as well as the continually increasing economic pressure. From the perspective of the author, the relinquence of medical competence imposed by the regulations of the new VAV catalogue is "throwing the baby out with the bathwater" because many VAV clinics nationwide also partially have competence in the severe injury type procedure (SAV). A concrete "competence-based approval" for the individual areas of the VAV procedure would be sensible and would maintain the comprehensive care of insured persons and also increase or strengthen the willingness of participating VAV hospitals for unconditional implementation of the new VAV procedure.
