You suffer from Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis and the GdB determined for this is at least 60.
You have an artificial anus and at the same time an artificial urinary diversion and the GdB determined for this is at least 70.
You are severely disabled and, according to a medical assessment, are to be treated in the same way as the aforementioned group of people.

Please note: The decisive factor is the individual GdB for the respective functional impairment and not the total GdB resulting from the sum of individual functional impairments.
