German term or phrase: Pflegeleistungs-Ergänzungsgesetz (PflEG)
Context:

"Darüber hinaus werden die Leistungen des 200X in Kraft getretenen Pflegeleistungs-Ergänzungsgesetzes (bis zu X € pro Jahr für qualitätsgesicherte Betreuungsleistungen der ambulanten und teilstationären professionellen Pflege) als zu gering angesehen."

Supplementary Nursing Benefits Act
Explanation:
That's what it's called at the Bundesbank.

"the 2001 Supplementary
Nursing Benefits Act envisages additional
expenditure on benefits, particularly for
people suffering from dementia."

I have also found Pflegeleistungen referred to as care benefits. For example:

"a federal law on complementing existing care benefits, the Pflegeleistungs-Ergänzungsgesetz (PflEG), targets individuals in high need of home care and providing them with new and improved benefits starting in January 2002."
