Abstract

The Preventive Health Care Act Germany adopted in July 2015 defines that the institutions involved in the National Prevention Conference have to publish a prevention report on a four year basis. In the report they have to detail their efforts towards settings-based primary prevention and health promotion. This article outlines the legal requirements for the prevention report and the status of the concept for the first report in 2019.
