Doctors Seek Higher Fees From Health Insurers
Caption: BERLIN, GERMANY - SEPTEMBER 05: (EDITORS NOTE: Personal data has been pixelated) A doctor retrieves a prescription from a computer printer on September 5, 2012 in Berlin, Germany. Doctors in the country are demanding higher payments from health insurance companies (Krankenkassen). Over 20 doctors' associations are expected to hold a vote this week over possible strikes and temporary closings of their practices if assurances that a requested additional annual increase of 3.5 billion euros (4,390,475,550 USD) in payments are not provided. The Kassenaerztlichen Bundesvereinigung (KBV), the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians, unexpectedly broke off talks with the health insurance companies on Monday.
