Compensation
All patients are covered by a financial compensation scheme for injuries arising in connection with hospital treatment. This scheme also covers you, if you have been injured in connection with treatment received at a private hospital. It is the responsibility of the Patient Compensation Authority to ensure that patients receive the compensation to which they are legally entitled.

To allow us to learn from these and to avoid these in future, you - the patient or next of kin - have the option to report accidental incidents to the Danish Patient Safety Authority.
