Who will need a blocked account?

In general, you need a blocked account in Germany if your home country does not belong to the European Union or the Schengen states and if you want to stay in Germany for some time for specific reasons. For example, you might need a blocked account if you plan to spend some time in Germany as a student, language student or participant in an international exchange program as part of an education program.

What should you do in the even of an illness?

Primary care physicians are responsible for diagnosis and therapy and coordinate the need for further treatment. This includes assessing if they are able to carry out the treatment themselves or if it is necessary to consult a specialist. This makes it easier to coordinate therapies and to avoid that examinations are carried out twice. It furthermore helps to avoid incompatible therapies, interlink medical benefits and reduce costs. This recommendation does, of course, not apply to necessary visits of gynecologists, eye specialists, emergency physicians or doctors on call.
