Legal basis

The legal basis is § 274 SGB ​​V. The highest administrative authorities of the federal states responsible for social security have to check at least every five years. The audit must cover the entire business; it includes the examination of its legality and economic efficiency. The health insurances , the associations and working groups of the health insurances and the associations of statutory health insurance physicians must submit all documents and provide all information that is necessary to carry out the examination.

According to an administrative regulation issued in 1960, 70% of the costs of the state examination office are borne by the social security institutions and 30% by the Free State of Bavaria . The tasks are entrusted to 1 head of department (50%), 3 heads of unit, 27 auditors and 6 other employees. In 2004, personnel and material costs amounted to € 2.8 million.
