Entscheidung des Bundessozialgerichts: Keine studentische Krankenversicherung für Promovierende

Das Gericht greift die Position vieler Wissenschaftsinstitutionen auf, dass Promovierende keine Studierenden, sondern Wissenschaftler*innen sind und dass auch ein Promotionsstudium in erster Linie dem Nachweis der wissenschaftlichen Qualifikation nach dem Studium dient.

http://www.bsg.bund.de/SharedDocs/Publikationen/Pressemitteilungen/2018/Pressemitteilung_2018_32.html

Damit das nicht zu sozialversicherungsrechtlichen Nachteilen führt, schlagen Interessenvertretungen der Promovierenden vor, einen Promovierendenstatus ins Sozialgesetzbuch aufzunehmen.
