Child and youth welfare/social welfare: Arbitration boards
Service Description
In each federal state, an arbitration board in accordance with SGB XII and SGB VIII is set up at the responsible federal state authority. The arbitration board can be called upon by the negotiating parties to clarify disputes regarding the remuneration agreements for social welfare and child and youth welfare facilities. The arbitration board proceedings are intended to facilitate a swift resolution of disputes.
The arbitration boards have the task of settling disputes and conflicts relating to
- the content, scope and quality of services (service agreement),
- differentiated fees for the services offered and the investments required for operations (fee agreements) and
- principles and benchmarks for assessing the quality of the services offered and suitable measures to ensure this (quality development agreement)
to decide without delay at the request of one of the parties. Legal recourse to the courts is available against this decision.
Who should I contact?
The offices for these arbitration boards are located in the Thuringian State Administration Office, Department VII.
Competent authority
Arbitration board at the Thuringian State Administration Office
Which documents are required?
A written application from one of the parties is required to initiate arbitration proceedings. Submit the application informally to the office of the arbitration board. Application forms are not available for this purpose. Attach the documents on which the negotiations on the disputed point were based to the application.
What are the fees?
The amount of the fees and their distribution among the parties shall be set by the chairperson of the Arbitration Board at between EUR 250.00 and EUR 2,500.00, depending on the economic importance of the case and the costs incurred by the Arbitration Board, including the office.
What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?
If an agreement pursuant to Section 76 (2) SGB XII is not reached within 6 weeks, the application to the arbitration board should be submitted immediately, as arbitration board decisions pursuant to Section 77 (2) SGB XII come into force on the date specified therein or, if applicable, on the date on which the application is received.
