• Medical treatment, including examination and care, medical rehabilitation and first aid. General medical treatment is provided in health centres, in inpatient departments or as home nursing care. From March 2005, with the exception of cases of injury, patients shall be examined and treated within a given time. Patients shall be able to obtain immediate contact with a health centre on weekdays in normal working time, and shall also be able to visit the health centre. If an appointment at a health centre is deemed to be necessary, the patient shall be given an appointment within three working days from the time of contact with the health centre. Normally, treatment is provided at the health centre immediately at the first visit. Treatment that is not provided at the visit shall be started within three months. In cases where health centres provide specialized treatment, the same time-limits apply as those for specialized health services (six months). The need for treatment, with the exception of cases of injury, shall be assessed within three weeks after referral to a hospital. If a doctor has examined a patient, and has established that treatment is needed, the treatment shall be started at the latest within six months. Children and young people shall receive psychiatric treatment within three months if it is assessed to be necessary. Dental treatment that is assessed to be necessary shall be started within a reasonable time and at the latest within six months. If a patient’s own health centre or hospital cannot provide treatment within the ORGANIZATION OF HEALTH SERVICES • Sygdomsbehandling som omfatter lægeundersøgelser og pleje samt medicinsk rehabilitering og førstehjælp. Den almindelige sygdomsbehandling gives ved sundhedscentrene, på sengeafdelinger eller som hjemmesygepleje. Fra og med marts 2005 skal en patient, med undtagelse af skader, undersøges og behandles inden for en fastsat tid. Patienten skal umiddelbart få kontakt med sundhedscentret, på hverdage i arbejdstiden, ligesom patienten også skal kunne besøge sundhedscentret. Hvis det bedømmes at der er behov for et besøg på sundhedscentret, skal patienten have en tid på sundhedscentret inden for tre hverdage fra det tidspunkt patienten har taget kontakt. Normalt indledes behandlingen ved sundhedscentret med det samme ved det første besøg. Behandling der ikke gives ved besøg skal iværksættes inden tre måneder. I de tilfælde hvor sundhedscentrene yder specialiseret behandling, tillempes de samme tidsgrænser som inden for den specialiserede behandling (der er seks måneder). Behovet for behandling, i de tilfælde der ikke drejer sig om skader, skal bedømmes inden for tre uger efter henvisning til et sygehus. Hvis en læge der har undersøgt en patient, konstaterer at vedkommende har behov for behandling, skal denne indledes senest inden for seks måneder. Børn og unge skal modtage psykiatrisk behandling inden for tre måneder hvis det skønnes nødvendig. Tandbehandling, som anses for at være nødvendig, skal iværksættes inden for en rimelig tid, og senest inden for 6 måneder. Hvis patientens egen sundhedscenter eller sygehus ikke kan behandle patienten, in- 24
ORGANIZATION OF HEALTH SERVICES given time, the patient shall be offered treatment either in another municipality or at a private institution, without extra cost to the patient. The municipalities must provide services for people who are mentally ill that can reasonably be offered in health centres. Dental care includes information and prevention, and dental examination and treatment. Dental examination and treatment paid by the health insurance is provided for the whole population. Dental care is also provided in health centres for adults, particularly in rural municipalities. Most dental treatment for adults is provided by dentists in private practice. Young people under the age of 18 are entitled to dental care free of charge. Municipalities are also required to provide ambulance services and to ensure that occupational health services are established. Employers can either organize their occupational health service themselves or they can have an agreement with a health centre or with others who provide occupational health services. In many municipalities, social welfare and health services have been integrated in recent years. Physicians working in health centres are usually specialists in general medical care. In the public health service system, patients need a referral for specialist treatment, except in the case of emergency. In private clinics, the physicians are mostly specialists. Patients need no referral to visit these private specialists. Physicians working in private clinics can refer their patients either to public or private hospitals. 25 den for den fastsatte tid, skal behandlingen tilbydes enten i en anden kommune eller inden for den private sygdomsbehandling, uden ekstra udgifter for patienten. Kommunerne skal sørge for, at mentalt syge får ydelser, som med rimelighed kan tilbydes i sundhedscentrene. Tandbehandlingen omfatter oplysning og forebyggelse samt undersøgelse og behandling af tænder. Undersøgelse og behandling af tænder betalt af sygeforsikringen gives til hele befolkningen. Ved sundhedscentrene, især i landkommunerne, gives der desuden tandbehandling til voksne. Det meste af voksenbehandlingen udføres af privatpraktiserende tandlæger. Unge under 18 år har ret til tandbehandling uden brugerbetaling. Kommunerne skal desuden tilvejebringe sygetransport og sørge for etableringen af bedriftssundhedstjenester. Arbejdsgiverne kan selv organisere bedriftssundhedstjenesten, eller de kan indgå aftale med et sundhedscenter eller andre der arbejder med bedriftssundhedstjenesten. I mange kommuner er den sociale service i de senere år blevet integreret med sundhedsydelserne. Læger, der arbejder ved sundhedscentrene, er normalt alment praktiserende specialister. Patienterne skal i det offentlige sundhedssystem have en henvisning til en specialist, dog ikke i akutte tilfælde. De fleste af de læger som arbejder i private klinikker er specialister. Patienterne behøver ingen henvisning for at opsøge disse specialister. Læger der arbejder i privatklinikker kan henvise patienter til enten private eller offentlige hospitaler.
