Funding programs of the Bavarian State Ministry of Health and Food Safety

Another funding program of the Bavarian Health Agency, which is of interest for health telematics, is the funding program for improving medical quality in Bavarian spas and spas. The funding program supports Bavarian spas and spas, as well as recognized mineral spring and peat bogs, to actively shape structural change. The future-oriented focus is in the focus. The aim is to sharpen the independent health profile with modern and new medical concepts, especially in the areas of early detection, (workplace) health promotion and prevention, as well as care, as well as to further improve medical quality.

As well:
Promotion of the establishment of doctors and psychotherapists in rural areas.
Fewer and fewer doctors are choosing to settle in rural areas. Therefore, additional incentives must be created so that more doctors settle there. The Free State of Bavaria therefore promotes the establishment of general practitioners, physicians and psychotherapists involved in general medical care as well as child and adolescent psychiatrists and child psychiatrists in rural areas. In case of particular importance, branch formation can also be promoted.

German funding programs

The Assmann Foundation has set itself the goal of promoting research and educating the public in the field of prevention. Prevention and health promotion improve people’s health, quality of life, mobility and performance. By the discovery of early stages of a disease, e.g. Through health check-ups, heart attack tests or other preventive examinations as well as through early therapy, the life expectancy of many people can be extended considerably.

First and foremost, we would like to improve the emergency aid in the sense of emergency patients. Therefore, the work of rescue services, clinics and doctors should be facilitated, because this inevitably leads to a faster care of the casualty. We try to influence legislation to establish necessary improvements, optimize emergency services and apply the latest technology to ensure the best possible care for patients.

The Federal Association for Prevention and Health Promotion e.V. (BVPG) with its office in Bonn was founded in 1954 and is a non-profit, politically and denominationally independent association. 133 organizations are currently members of the BVPG, including above all the federal associations of the health service (such as the German Medical Association, the central associations of health insurance funds and associations of the health and support professions, but also educational institutions and academies), which is a priority in the field of “prevention and health promotion”. Respectively.

In 2004, the German Foundation for the chronically ill was founded in Fürth. The Foundation has set itself the goal of improving the care of people suffering from a chronic disease. Above all, this purpose is realized through the development, promotion and scientific evaluation of innovative forms of care as well as supporting patient training and care concepts.

The Foundation’s work is based on the conviction that cooperation between all those involved in care – from doctors, nurses and therapists to payers and health policy representatives – is an essential basis for improving the quality of life of people with chronic illnesses. An important role is also played by the patient himself – a proactive and self-determined treatment of his illness represents a significant success factor for coping with the disease and thus for the success of the therapy.

For the past eight years, the German Foundation for the chronically ill has been committed to improving the care of people with chronic diseases in the tradition of its founders.

The foundation links with the DDG a bilateral cooperation agreement, especially with the aim of matching research funding. The DDS is the initiator of the care project “Diabetes in old age”. It cooperates closely with the DDG workgroups: diabetes and geriatrics and prevention of type 2 diabetes. It is involved in the development of corresponding guidelines, concepts and curricula.

The IFG supports, promotes and organizes projects and events of the BDI. It is the contact person for sponsoring and cooperations with partners. Both companies and other organizations have the opportunity to promote BDI projects, e.g. Publications, specialist events and initiatives. The IFG is responsible for the financing as well as the handling and accounting of projects.

The Robert Bosch Stiftung is a non-profit organization. It sees itself both as an operational foundation that pursues its goals with its own programs, and as a supporting foundation that enables third parties to develop and implement interesting approaches – projects and initiatives – to accomplish social tasks at home and abroad.

Access to medical care for all people in the future – without rationing services. That is the goal of the Münch Foundation. For this to succeed, practical new approaches, innovative concepts and bold ideas are required. The Münch Foundation would like to support the development of these concepts and ideas and promote the implementation of the best concepts. That is why the Münch Foundation annually awards the Eugen Münch Prize in two categories: for a scientific work and for an innovative business model.

Horizon 2020 is the largest EU research and innovation program ever with nearly € 80 billion in funding over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market.

Responding to this challenge, research and innovation (R & I) under Horizon 2020 is an investment in better health for all. It aims to keep older people active and independent for longer and supports the development of new, safer and more effective interventions. R & I under Horizon 2020 thus contributes to the sustainability of health and care systems.
