Exactly this. In Germany the private insurance is actually cheaper than the public one, you can purchase private on the top of public and so on. As a result of a much freer market the prices are much lower.
- denzil_correa 8y ago> In Germany the private insurance is actually cheaper than the public one Well, the public insurance is a percentage of your income. The private one is based on many opaque factors. Private cheaper than public would be a more than a stretch without appropriate qualifiers.
- StreamBright 8y agoSure, in my situation this is the case. I am not sure about others or how much percentage of the population has the same situation.
- mamon 8y agoAnd what exactly does this private insurance cover? In Poland private healthcare is fine for healthy young people that occasionally catch a cold, or have their ankle sprinkled, because it saves a lot of wait time. Treating any serious illness (think heart attack, cancer, diabeties, etc.) is either insanely expensive or not covered at all by private insurers, so public health care is your only chance here.
