Procurement procedure
Procurement law includes those regulations that, among other things, statutory health insurance companies as public clients must observe when procuring products and services. Public procurement law also contains a number of provisions according to which service providers as bidders can seek legal protection to review procurement processes. In the healthcare sector, the procurement of the statutory health insurance funds by way of awarding has become firmly established and now characterizes essential areas of the healthcare market (e.g. through drug discount agreements or aid contracts).
