    Yes, but:

    1. health insurance (better would ve mutual gealth fund – it’s not an insurance in the normal sense) is ~15.5 % of your taxable income, shared between employer and employee.
    2. this includes all of your core family without income.
    3. if you earn more than 66150 € per year, your fee will be cut.
    4. if you earn more than 6672 € per year, you’ll need your own health “insurance”, which would cost you 570 € and would cover in theory the entire family.

    If your self-employed, cost doubles, of course. A self-employed couple earning more than 132300 € per year would have to pay 43754.40 € per year. Most will change to a private insurer, unkess they got a bunch of kids.

    Esomeprazol 40 mg 90 tablets are ~ 20 €. You’ll have to pay 5 € yourself.

    For context: median income was 43750 € in 2024.

    The horrors of public health not funded by taxes. (These are usually free of charge.)
