The BPW Germany regrets the fact that an obligation to pay contribution for free coinsured marriage partners from well earning households, which do not educate children or maintains members from the table is obvious. „It does not concern that the freiwillige Nichterwerbstätigkeit not only of the employed insured ones, but over the subsidies of the treasury to the health insurance companies also still by the taxpayer “, underlines Schleicher is subsidized. The health committee of the federal daily had recommended with the voices of the government parties and the FDP to reject a request for an appropriate obligation to pay contribution.
