摘要
Competition is tough and the cost pressure enormous. Vivantes will actively meet the challenges of the market to gain a strong market position. All measures to improve competitiveness will be taken on the basis of the communal mandate to provide prioritised medical care; quality standards need to be maintained. In times of tight budgets Vivantes uses the limited funds carefully and focuses on using them wherever they will be most beneficial. Vivantes will achieve its ambitious business objectives by concentrating services sensibly, using efficient structures and focussing on interlocking processes.
