About Hauptstadtkongress

The Hauptstadtkongress Medizin und Gesundheit in Berlin is one of the most important meeting places for decision makers in the German healthcare system. Over three days, participants from every branch of healthcare debate the key reform projects with leading voices from the health economy and politics, medicine and nursing, science and research, and health insurance. The Federal Minister of Health traditionally attends in person, which makes the congress a central stage for health policy debate in the German capital.
