Abstract

Eine höhere Beitragsbemessungsgrenze soll die Finanzen der Gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung (GKV) nachhaltig stabilisieren. Begründet wird dies unter anderem mit einer gerechteren Verteilung der Beitragslast. Das gelänge auch bei einem entsprechend niedrigeren Beitragssatz. Tatsächlich geht es aber wohl eher darum, zusätzliche Einnahmen zu erzielen. Das würde aber nicht nur die Besserverdienenden belasten, sondern auch deren Arbeitgeber. Doch gelänge damit weder eine nachhaltige Finanzierung, noch ließe sich das Ausgabenwachstum disziplinieren.
