© 2018 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston. Numerous international studies show that Indices of Multiple Deprivation are a suitable instrument to determine socio-spatial effects on the health of the population and, thereby, to display social inequalities. For Germany, the German Index of Multiple Deprivation is such an established instrument. In the future, corresponding well-founded results should receive more attention when it comes to the allocation of resources or the planning of medical requirements.
