The SP opposes the center’s cost-saving initiative. At the party congress on Saturday, delegates voted against the proposal, which will be voted on on June 9.
The Centre’s cost-cutting initiative calls for action if healthcare costs rise too much compared to wages. This could potentially mean removing benefits from the basic insurance catalogue, granting deductibles or increasing pressure on staff, Barbara Gysi (NR/SG) told delegates at Le Grand-Saconnex GE.
SP co-chair Mattea Meyer, on the other hand, argued that the cost brake was not wrong in principle. She says:
It is a sham competition between health insurers that is financed by premium payers; the cost brake initiative could help combat this.
However, delegates agreed that their own health insurance reduction initiative, the Premium Relief Initiative, was better suited to combat health care cost problems.
The premium reduction initiative, which will also be voted on on June 9, calls for more premium reductions. Insured persons should spend a maximum of ten percent on compulsory health insurance. (cst/sda)
