- Country's elderly and sick being sent abroad due to rising care costs
- Situation described as 'inhumane deportation' and a huge 'alarm signal'
- Warning to Britain where pensioners are selling homes to pay for healthcare
Rising numbers of the elderly and sick are moved overseas for long-term care because of sky-high costs at home.
Some private healthcare providers are even building homes overseas, while state insurers are also investigating whether they can care for their clients abroad.
Experts describe a time bomb' of increasing numbers unable to afford the growing costs of retirement homes.
And they say the situation should be a warning to Britain, where rising numbers of pensioners are forced to sell their homes to pay for care.
The Sozialverband Deutschland (VdK), a socio-political advisory group, said the fact that many Germans were unable to afford the costs of a retirement home in their own country was a huge 'alarm signal'.
'We simply cannot let those people, who built Germany up to be what it is, be deported,' VdK's president Ulrike Mascher told The Guardian. 'It is inhumane.'
