10 Advantages of the "Medical Basics" degree

With a degree in basic medical subjects, you have the opportunity to register with an alternative or complementary medical method in the EMR register of health insurance companies. Confirmed knowledge of basic medical principles is a prerequisite for supplementary insurance companies to make a contribution to treatment costs.

Summary of the most important advantages of the "Medical basics" courses:

  1. The Medical Basics courses provide basic medical knowledge, which is why no prior knowledge is required for admission
  2. There are many providers of these courses, so you can find a suitable school for you in any region
  3. The Medical Basics course has a modular structure and can also be completed over a longer period of time
  4. There are many different teaching models, so it is possible for any type of job to complete these courses while working
  5. Even if you do not need health insurance recognition for your therapeutic practice, this course will provide you with a basis for working competently and safely
  6. Since 1.1.2018, preparatory courses for federal higher professional examinations have been financially supported by the federal government. Anyone who attends the course in medical basics as a module of a preparatory course for a higher professional examination such as complementary therapist or naturopath can therefore receive up to 50% of the course fees back after taking the federal examination.
  7. It is also worthwhile for therapists with methods that are not yet recognized by the health insurance companies to obtain this qualification in conventional medical principles, as new methods are constantly being added
  8. Most schools that offer training in alternative medicine or complementary therapy also have courses in medical basics in their program. This makes it possible to complete all courses in the same environment.
  9. People with basic medical training or further training can have individual modules credited and thus shorten their training
  10. The training modules and module qualifications are standardized so that it is also possible to change schools
