Crisis in Statutory Health Insurance Demands Urgent Action
The financial strain on statutory health insurances (GKV) has reached a critical point, compelling the federal government to expedite an 800 million euro financial injection. This move aims to replenish the dwindling liquidity reserves of the health fund, which have fallen below the minimum threshold.
Health Minister Nina Warken describes the situation as more dire than previously acknowledged, labeling it a 'first warning shot.' To address the escalating crisis, the government plans to propose comprehensive reforms by 2027, incorporating measures to stabilize the finances of the GKV.
The urgency of this intervention underscores the need for immediate action to secure the future of health insurance in the country.
