A health system that satisfies ethical criteria must apply the principles of equity in allocation of resources, and in addition guarantee unimpeded access to the necessary care for everybody. As to the latter this is vastly realized in the Federal Republic. The same is not true for equity in allocation. There are certain areas which are overprovided and others with deficiencies as for instance care for geriatric and chronic patients. Therefore, we already have a two-class-medicine but should do our best to prevent it from gaining additional ground.
