Increased Doctor Turnover Rates in MV, According to Cash Register Association Report - High rate of physician job changes in MV
In the medical landscape of Germany, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (MV) has emerged as a standout region, with general practitioners and specialists generating an impressive average revenue from statutory health insurance patients in 2023.
According to the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians and the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (vdek), MV earned an average of 284,798 euros per practice, placing it above the national average. This high revenue is primarily attributed to the region's high patient numbers.
In 2021, MV held the top spot in revenue from statutory health insurance services for both general practitioners and specialists, and fourth place for general practitioners alone. This consistency in performance over the years indicates a robust healthcare system in the region.
The city of Schwerin, the capital of MV, has been at the centre of this discussion. However, the name of the general practitioner in Schwerin who had the highest statutory health insurance revenue before the 2024 figures were available remains undisclosed.
The data used in this analysis came from the honor reports of the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians. The Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (vdek) reports that medical practices in MV earn above average nationwide in 2023.
Claudia Straub, head of vdek's state office, has called for the settlement of young doctors in MV, citing favourable financial framework conditions in the region as a reason for founding or taking over a medical practice. This call comes amidst dozens of unfilled positions for statutory health insurance doctors in the northeast.
It's worth noting that only Saxony-Anhalt had a higher sum of revenue from statutory health insurance services in 2023, making MV's performance all the more impressive. This comparison underscores the strong position of MV within Germany's healthcare system.
However, it's important to note that no figures for 2024 are available yet. As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how MV's performance compares in the coming years.
Doctors in MV practices work above average hours due to high patient numbers, a testament to their dedication to providing quality care. This hard work has undoubtedly contributed to the region's success in the statutory health insurance sector.
