More money for the nursing home? Consumers should pay attention to this

<!–

– The structure must give written notice at least four weeks in advance of when and by what amount the fee will be increased.

– The increase must be justified.

– All items for which a salary increase is expected must be named.

– It is necessary to compare the old and the new remuneration component.

– The scale on which the cost increase is divided must be specified.

– Consumers must be given the opportunity to consult the calculation documents.

– Consumers must agree before the premium rate can be charged.

If the entity deviates from the procedure, the tariff increase may be ineffective: consumers can deny their consent. The nursing home should then seek approval.

Another option for reacting to price increases may be the special statutory right of withdrawal for residents. It applies when the property requests the rate increase. “Before canceling, however, you should first check if a suitable alternative can be found,” says Vovk.

According to VZ Berlin, the background of rising prices is better remuneration for nursing staff and rising prices due to the crown pandemic and the war in Ukraine.
