Health is a human right. This applies to all people living in Germany. You have the right to be treated by a doctor. However, it is especially difficult for people that are new to Germany to figure out the German health care system (Gesundheitssystem).
This brochure is for people living in Oberbayern as asylum seekers or refugees. It gives an overview of the Gesundheitssystem in Germany and your medical rights during the asylum procedure (Asylverfahren). Our mental well-being is very important for our overall health. There is a special focus on psychological health in this brochure for that reason. This brochure shows what you can do yourself to keep healthy and who can help you.
