There are several important rulings by the Federal Social Court (BSG) that are relevant to the provision of medical aids in practice. These rulings clarify which medical aids are considered necessary and how health insurance companies must assess applications. We take a look at some of these landmark rulings and explain what they mean for your application.

Landmark rulings by the Federal Social Court (BSG) have made a significant contribution to clarifying entitlements to medical aids. In particular, it emphasizes that assistive products can also be necessary if they are not only used by the insured person, but also to facilitate care by third parties.

The BSG's decision that the provision of medical aids can also apply to non-medical aids shows that the need must be assessed on an individual basis. This has far-reaching consequences for the practice of applying for aids and their approval by health insurance companies.

In principle, mobile stair climbing aids can also be classified under long-term care insurance. The provisions of Section 40 SGB XI (the law governing statutory long-term care insurance) regulate the entitlement to care aids and measures to improve the living environment.

The prerequisite is that the person in question is in need of care. This is usually proven by the corresponding care level.

Since the provision of a care aid is always subordinate to the provision of the aid by the health insurance fund, the latter must first check whether there is a claim under health insurance law in accordance with § 33 SGB V - only then can a claim for a care aid be considered.
