This is what awaits you here:

Your application for improvement of the living environment was rejected by the long-term care insurance fund? But what could be the reason for this? In this article we show you what you should look out for in the application!

 

First, take a close look at your submitted documents and review them.

Pay particular attention here to avoidable formal errors that could justify a rejection.

In fact, it is not uncommon for the nursing care insurance fund to reject such an application. There are many reasons for this, which we would like to explain to you in more detail.

The nursing care insurance fund differentiates here, for example, between already submitted entries, after installation of a stair lift or according to necessity. Your care degree is also decisive for a positive decision.

So if you have not yet received any care degree, you are basically not entitled to file an application for improvement of the living environment. If you have already received a care degree, but have already claimed a benefit for this, this usually automatically leads to rejection.

In your case, the nursing care insurance fund explicitly asks the question of necessity. Imagine the following living situation in more detail:

You have an apartment or a house, which extends over several floors. On the first floor there is your living room, kitchen and a bathroom. On the second floor there is another bathroom as well as a guest room and your beloved hobby room, which you unfortunately can't reach anymore due to the stairs.

Your basic care is therefore more than assured on the first floor. For the nursing care insurance fund, this is therefore a reason for rejection, as it does not represent a necessity in your everyday life.

If there were no bathroom or no possibility for a bathroom on the first floor, the situation can be interpreted differently, since there is a bathroom and the associated need for hygiene and everyday life.
