[Outpatient Medical Rehabilitation Services: A New Socio-Law Perspective In Psychiatric Care]. / Ambulante Leistungen der medizinischen Rehabilitation: Eine neue sozialrechtliche Perspektive in der psychiatrischen Versorgung.

The equality of mentally ill people with somatically ill people and the provision of community care were central topics of the Psychiatry-Enquête. With regard to medical rehabilitation services, this goal has not been implemented to date. The amendments to the Ninth Book of the Social Code (SGB IX) made by the Federal Participation Act (BTHG) again open up the possibility of making outreach medical rehabilitation services accessible to people with severe mental illnesses.
