The rate of change, a key parameter for determining the price increase for the reimbursement of hospital treatments in 2024 in Germany, has been set at 4.22%. Due to cost inflation, the rate of change will most likely mark the lower limit of the price increase for hospital treatments for 2024 in Germany. The change in hospital costs is the other parameter used in the annual determination of the reimbursement increase. The final DRG inflator should be determined at the latest by the end of the year.

The price increase for hospital services in Germany has been set at 3.45 % for 2023. As it is subject to negotiations at the state level as well as individual hospital discounts, the final price increase on the individual hospital level will, however, be lower.
