Insurance premium will be probably redistributed among health insurance companies according to the new rules, including PCG predictor. The measure, which should bring more money for state General Health Insurance Company (Všeobecná zdravotná poisťovňa, VšZP), was approved for the second reading by 98 votes of members of Parliament. The change of redistribution could bring as much as € 30 million annualy for the state owned health insurance company VšZP. Private insurance company Dôvera would, however, lose almost € 22 million and private Union Health Insurance Company will lose almost € 9 million. If approved, legal standard should enter into force in July this year.
