Dr. Carsten Linnemann is to become the new Federal Minister of Health, succeeding Nina Warken, who will in future head the Federal Chancellery.
The change comes at a time when key health policy issues – such as hospital reform, long-term care, the financing of statutory health insurance and the strengthening of Germany’s Healthcare market – are high on the political agenda.
For MedTech companies, investors and market players, this change of leadership provides an opportunity to closely monitor future health policy priorities and developments within the German healthcare system.
