Zusammenfassung:The hospital pharmacy system in Germany is somewhat different from other European countries. There are about 2,000 hospitals in Germany, but only about 410 hospital pharmacies supply medicines and provide general pharmaceutical services for more than 70% of the hospitals. About 230 retail pharmacies deliver drugs to the remaining 28% of the mainly smaller hospitals, see Figure 1. Unlike in many other European countries and regardless of the number of beds or level of care, Germany has no regulations requiring a hospital to run its own pharmacy.
