Psychosocial medicine represents the psychosocial aspects in a holistic patient-orientated medicine. It is of great importance in medical education as well as in clinical in- and out-patient treatment. For the near future, further strengthening is necessary in order to prevent the psychosocial aspects from disappearing in medicine. The efficacy and effectiveness of psychosocial therapies need to be further improved.
