Korruption Im Gesundheitswesen

Following long and controversial discussions, §§ 299a, 299b German Criminal Code came into force in June 2016. They changed the rules for physicians, the pharmaceutical industry and other actors in the healthcare system. Which forms of corporation will be subject to criminal sanctions? Which measures of compliance can protect hospitals and the pharmaceutical industry effectively from liability? This volume will consider these and other questions such as criminal liability for fraud in healthcare billing, breach of trust at the expense of health insurance companies and misallocation regarding the distribution of donated organs.--Publisher.
