Health Insurance Total Expenditure to Exceed 900 Billion in 2026 Facing Pressure for Adjustment

Reported about 1 year ago

In discussing the health insurance total expenditure for next year, the growth rate will fall between 3.521% and 5.5%, surpassing 900 billion regardless of the estimation being low or high. If the high estimation is adopted, the safety reserve fund will have only 1.01 months left by the end of 2025, potentially leading to a premium adjustment pressure in 2026. There is no consensus on the health insurance points issue among political parties, with discussions ongoing in the Legislative Yuan on amending the relevant articles of the Health Insurance Act to ensure a point value of 0.9 or 1.1 per point.
