Institute for Applied Health Research Berlin (InGef)

InGef supports the ongoing development of health care in Germany with practice-oriented research. On the basis of anonymized routine data, we examine the current need for care in order to identify any deficits in care as well as evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of (new) care structures and processes. We also assess the care services provided and the impact of current care on the quality of health of the insurees. One focus is on the implementation of pharmacoepidemiological studies, and InGef's aim is to contribute to the evidence-based use of medicines, both in terms of efficacy and safety and with regard to health economic efficiency.
