[The duration of psychosomatic rehabilitation: provisions, influencing factors, recommendations].

Rehabilitation (Stuttg) 47(1):8-13 (2008) PMID 18247266

The decision of the German legislator to limit rehabilitation programme participation under the health-insurance scheme to a duration of three weeks had been oriented less by rehabilitation-scientific findings rather than by economic considerations. This is the background for discussing the question to what extent medical experience and empirical data are providing new information as to the durations of rehabilitation necessary and feasible in the field of psychosomatic rehabilitation and as to measures capable of supporting its effectiveness without extending the duration of therapy.
