Description
The Health Care System in Germany--a short introduction (1) Healthcare in Germany is funded by a statutory contribution system that ensures free healthcare for all via sickness funds. Insurance payments are based on a percentage of income, nearly half divided between employee and employer. Healthcare insurance in Germany is divided between statutory and private schemes. The statutory health insurance (SHI), the so-called "Gesetzliche Krankenversicherung" (GKV), occupies a central position in the healthcare system in the Federal Republic of Germany. About 88% of the population are covered by the statutory health insurance which is compulsory for all who earn less than approx. 4.050 x per month (in 2009) before tax. Private healthcare schemes can either provide to complete health service for those who opt out for the SHI (10%) or top-up cover for those who remain within it. 2% were covered by governmental schemes and 0.2% were not covered by any third-party-payer scheme.
