Liposuction to be Payed For by Insurance Companies To Treat Fatty Tissue Hazards
Various; 2013
Synopsis: This law forum article talks about the new insurance coverage in Germany, which includes liposuction surgery and related hospital costs as a treatment for painful fatty tissue dysfunction.
Abstract: Should patients suffer from a painful fatty tissue dysfunction, obligatory legal insurance companies now have to take over the costs of a necessary hospitalization needed in order to perform extensive liposuction. On Wednesday, the 24th of April 2013, the federal social court authorized that it is no longer necessary that the state must give its consent for the liposuction treatment in order for the costs to be incurred. This verdict was announced at the court in Darmstadt, Hessen, Germany.
