In this thesis, it is investigated, how actors that are dealing with the transferal management processes and decisions, can be assisted with the help a domain-specific modelling language. The transferal management domain can be assigned to the administrative pathway in healthcare and is as an example dealing with the interface between acute hospital and rehabilitation clinic.In an extensive literature review, I have found out, that business process management and process modelling, as a part of it, do enjoy a high importance in companies. In the last few years, standards for modelling processes such as BPMN are more and more adopted and accepted. However, these standards are usually not domain-specific but general purpose.The healthcare sector however, due to its characteristics, seems to require a domain-specific modelling language, which provides domain-specific constructs and is easy to use and to understand. This has also been agreed by several researchers, who developed a domain-specific modelling language for healthcare to provide better support. These languages were always targeting the clinical pathway and thus no solution for the more administrative activities and decisions in transferal management was identified....
