Administrative Court Overturns Reduction of GSBG Allowances for Self-Paying Nursing Home Residents

  • The Administrative Court annulled the contested decision due to its unlawfulness.
  • The case concerns the reduction of subsidies under the Health and Social Sector Subsidies Act (GSBG) for the years 2014–2017, specifically regarding care cost supplements for self-payers in nursing homes.
  • The dispute centers on whether care allowance received by self-payers should be considered “public funds” and thus exempt from subsidy reduction.
  • The lower court (Federal Finance Court) had rejected the appeal, but the Administrative Court found this decision to be legally incorrect.
