As first federal state, city of Hamburg opens its official health insurance with a lump sum subsidy. The red-Green Senate decided to adopt a draft law which citizenry still has to approve. When draft is carried out re, so-called aid for Hamburg officials is designed so that y can be legally insure from August 2018 on ir own request.

So far, civil servants have been forced to reassure mselves privately. To cover costs, you receive a so-called individual subsidy from state. According to bill, Hamburg officials can also withdraw se in form of a lump sum equal to half of contribution to statutory health insurance. In this case, Hamburg aid payments to civil servants would be synonymous with employer’s share of employees who are legally insured.
“With reform, Hamburg is contributing to modernising health insurance system and ensuring more competition,” first mayor Olaf Scholz, who is also deputy federal chairman of SPD, shared with him. With idea of writing Hamburg “Social History”. The current exclusion from statutory health insurance would particularly discriminate against children, part-time workers, chronically ill persons or officials with disabilities. In future, family coinsurance will also be open to you, and you would not have to pay any risk premiums for pre-conditions.
SPD wants to introduce citizen insurance
However, choice will in fact be open only to new officials and to those who are already voluntarily insured by law at a higher rate of contribution. For long-standing officials, a change due to current health insurance law was no longer possible, Hamburg provincial government restricted.

A change between aid and lump sum should also be possible only once. It is not permissible to change back. In this way, Senate wants to avoid need for “optimization strategies” in which civil servants choose insurance models that are more favorable to m, depending on ir circumstances. This would weaken insurance financing model, Senate said.
Leaving civil servants in statutory health insurance is also part of SPD proposal of a citizen’s policy. The Social Democrats also want to make citizens ‘ insurance in probes with union about a new edition of Grand Coalition on subject. The SPD, left and Greens are in different variants for abolition of private health insurance and aspire to a statutory citizen insurance, into which everyone pays. The Confederation of Civil Servants rejects proposal.
