Urlaub trotz Krankengeld? - Reingehört #20

Vacation despite receiving sick pay?" This question repeatedly occupies the social security courts. If an employee falls ill, the employer continues to pay their salary for six weeks. From the seventh week onwards, the statutory health insurance company takes over and pays sick pay of 70 percent of the gross monthly salary. In this episode, VdK patient advisor Zeljka Pintaric explains what patients should keep in mind to ensure a carefree vacation is possible despite receiving sick pay. PODCAST "Listen in to the Social Association VdK Baden-Württemberg." What really interests patients. In the podcast "Listen in to the Social Association VdK Baden-Württemberg." "What Patients Really Care About" focuses on current topics from the VdK Patient Counseling Service, an exclusive counseling service offered by the Baden-Württemberg Social Association (VdK). At the VdK Patient Counseling Service, people in difficult situations can obtain independent and neutral information on health-related, medical, or psychosocial issues. Counseling is always provided personally and individually. In this podcast, the experts from the VdK Patient Counseling Service explain our rights as patients – entertainingly and informatively. They help us understand different treatment approaches and support us in navigating the information jungle. What services am I entitled to, and where will I be left with the costs? How does my advance directive become legally binding – and what do I need to consider here? Or: What do I need to do to be able to stay at home despite increasing restrictions? Questions that often remain unanswered are posed in this podcast in the form of fascinating interviews and answered independently, competently, and, last but not least, sensitively by the professional counselors. You can also find the podcast on popular streaming providers: Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, or Podimo. Don't miss anything and subscribe to the channel!
