people without health insurance, including people in precarious status regarding residence law but partly. also EU citizens with and without a German passport, have no access to regular medical care in Germany. Specialized contact points have been created in numerous municipalities in recent years, which are intended to pave the – often very complicated – path to standard care. In Hesse, such “clearing houses” currently only exist in Wiesbaden and Frankfurt am Main.
In the study “Local responses to migrants with precarious residence status: Frame, Strategies and innovative practices in Europe (LoReMi)“was, among other things,. access to healthcare in Frankfurt am Main is examined. Maren Kirchhoff presents important results of the study. The presentation is supplemented by comments from Regine Bresler (Health department for the Kassel region) and Gero Moog (Traveling Doctors e.V.) on the situation in Kassel.
