Non-profit organizations are increasingly subjected to the forces of globalization.

Das Gesundheitswesen weist vielfältige rechtliche und wirtschaftliche Beziehungen zwischen Leistungserbringern, Patienten und Versicherungen auf. Diese Beziehungen können unterschiedlichste steuerliche Folgen sowohl im Ertrag- als auch im Umsatzsteuerrecht auslösen. Die einschlägigen Vorschriften sind weit über die geltenden Steuergesetze verstreut und ihr Zusammenhang schwer verständlich. Das vorliegende Buch schafft hierbei Abhilfe. Es gibt einen systematischen und praxisorientierten Einblick in die steuerlichen Probleme, die speziell im Gesundheitswesen auftreten. Rechtsprechung und Verwaltungsentscheidungen werden umfassend berücksichtigt. Die Darstellung differenziert zwischen den verschiedenen Gruppen von Leistungserbringern sowie Versicherungen und Patienten. Sie richtet sich an steuerliche Berater, die im Gesundheitswesen tätig sind, aber auch an die beteiligten Akteure selbst.
In diesem Band werden die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen bürgerschaftlichen Engagements untersucht und Vorschläge zu deren Verbesserung unterbreitet.
