Unfair burden for pensioners: Traffic lights are watching double health insurance contributions. In 2024, the contribution assessment limit will be 62,100 euros.

Retirees often pay more than once for their health insurance. The traffic light coalition actually wanted to change that. Such relief is not part of the federal government's agreement, says the coalition spokesman. The coalition wants to make continuing to work after retirement age more attractive. But despite repeated announcements by the Chancellor, little has happened so far. It is currently still unclear whether there will be further opportunities to relieve the burden on company pensioners.
