德国联合政府正在围绕保险部长卡斯滕·林内曼提出的护理制度改革方案进行谈判,计划在9月30日的内阁会议上批准该方案1。人口老龄化导致的护理需求和成本持续上升,改革成为当务之急1。
根据国家法定健康保险基金会的估计,护理保险在今年的缺口为44亿欧元,预计2027年将扩大至100亿欧元1。作为初级联盟伙伴的中左翼社民党主张在养老院为民众设立个人护理费用上限,并推动私人和法定护理保险之间的财务调整更加公平1。保守党对相关建议持怀疑态度,而社民党反对在改革中削减护理服务1。
Germany's governing coalition is negotiating a comprehensive reform of the country's care system, with Insurance Minister Carsten Linnemann leading the proposal.1 The cabinet is scheduled to approve the reform plan at a meeting on Wednesday, September 30th.1
The reform has become urgent due to mounting pressures from an aging population, which is driving increased demand for care services and rising costs.1 According to estimates from the statutory health insurance fund, the care insurance system faces a shortfall of 4.4 billion euros this year, projected to balloon to 10 billion euros by 2027.1 The Social Democratic Party, serving as the junior coalition partner, has opposed cuts to care services and is pushing for specific safeguards, including a cap on personal care costs in nursing homes and more equitable financial arrangements between private and statutory care insurance schemes.1 Meanwhile, the conservative party has expressed skepticism toward the insurance minister's proposals.1
