*Excluded from above budget:
We are on a hospital plan. Medical expenses for ourselves
and Anke and Markus (everything that takes place outside of a hospital stay) are
for our own account. Hospital plans pay for in hospital services plus (required
by law) certain listed/permitted ‘prescribed minimum benefits’ (PMBs) such as chronic
medicine according to a list of some 27 conditions. Hospital plans do not pay
for visits or other services provided by doctors, optometrists, physiotherapists.
