Apply for full-time care (home care)
Description
As a person in need of care, you are entitled from the long-term care insurance to care in a full-time institution if home or semi-stationary care is not possible or is not considered because of the specific nature of your case. In addition to the actual care services, the scope of services also includes social care and the provision of medical treatment care.
Your nursing insurance fund (health insurance) pays a flat rate for full-patient care services of:
1,023 Euros per month in care level I,
1,279 euros per month in care level II,
1,550 euros per month in care level III as well as
1,918 Euros per month in special hardship cases,
a maximum of 75 percent of the agreed home fee.
Note:
Inpatient care facilities vary widely - not just in terms of costs. To find the right setup, it's important to take a close look. Therefore, also pay attention to the ambience and the atmosphere, observe the interaction of the staff with the patients and also talk to the residents in advance.
Advice on the choice of the right care facility can be obtained from the social welfare office of your district or your district-free city as well as from the State Office for Supply and Social Affairs of the State Administration Office in Halle. Information is also available from your nursing care fund (health insurance).
