German term

Belegungstag

German to English Medical Medical: Health Care health funds
Term used to indicate day spent in hospital. The translation is on health fund regulations and so I am after a word meaning "occupancy/occupying day". Does anyone know the term for this, in health fund jargon? It refers to an actual day, or one used for calculation purposes.

Allocation day

Bezeichnung verwendete, den Tag anzuzeigen, der im Krankenhaus verbracht wurde. Die Übersetzung ist auf Gesundheit Kapital Regelungen und also bin ich nach einer Wortbedeutung "occupancy/occupying Tag". Kennt jemand die Bezeichnung für dieses, in der Gesundheit Kapital Fachsprache? Es bezieht sich einen tatsächlichen Tag oder auf einen, der für Berechnung Zwecke verwendet wird
