Zusammenfassung
Der Artikel analysiert die verschiedenen Optionen, die sich ergeben, will man die unerwünschten Resultate durch molekulargenetische Informationen im Versicherungswesen verhindern oder abmildern. Es wird zwischen Makro-, Meso- und Mikrooptionen unterschieden. Die Optionen werden auf die Wahrscheinlichkeit ihrer Realisierung hin untersucht.
