Case (as mentioned <strong>in</strong> the table above) or unit of treatment, <strong>is</strong> different for the three<br />
systems. <strong>The</strong> figure <strong>is</strong> therefore only <strong>in</strong>cluded as an <strong>in</strong>dication, but the different systems<br />
cannot be compared.<br />
Until 2004, when the system of K-nomenclature was rev<strong>is</strong>ed, the expense/case was<br />
significantly higher for the K-nomenclature than for the 9.50 nomenclature. <strong>The</strong> reason<br />
<strong>is</strong> not obvious. <strong>The</strong> expense/case <strong>is</strong> highest for the 7.71 conventions, <strong>in</strong> which a lot of<br />
highly specialized and <strong>in</strong>tensive rehabilitation <strong>is</strong> provided.<br />
5.1.10 Comparative analys<strong>is</strong> of the expenditures <strong>in</strong> the different systems<br />
<strong>The</strong> comparability of the treatments and prices <strong>in</strong> the different systems <strong>is</strong> questionable.<br />
Compar<strong>in</strong>g the fixed prices (equivalent of a 1 hour treatment, see table) <strong>in</strong> the different<br />
systems <strong>is</strong> not as transparent as seems at first. One should take <strong>in</strong>to account that a<br />
treatment session can be provided <strong>with</strong> different <strong>in</strong>tensity, different <strong>in</strong>frastructure and<br />
different multid<strong>is</strong>cipl<strong>in</strong>ary teams.<br />

• Convention 9.50: Expenses refer to the treatment for pathology group<br />
A2 after R30/60- the duration of a treatment session <strong>is</strong> unspecified.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore we give a range from 13€ (price/hour <strong>in</strong> case of 3h<br />
treatment) to 39€ (price/hour <strong>in</strong> case of 1h treatment) as a basel<strong>in</strong>e<br />
expenditure.<br />
• K-nomenclature: Expenses refer to K30 and K60<br />
• Convention 7.71: Expenses refer to different treatment sessions (full<br />
day / half day, ma<strong>in</strong>tenance / <strong>in</strong>tensive) and <strong>is</strong> recalculated to 1h <strong>in</strong><br />
order to compare <strong>with</strong> the 9.50 convention and the K nomenclature
