They will examine it and do fuck all about it just like car insurance and utilitie company’s
I’m also going to look at myself in a mirror but I won’t create an article about it because I have genuine work to do. Must be nice proclaiming from a balcony
I have never seen a person so good a saying nothing while talking…
….and do absofuckinlutely nothing about it!
Government examination reveals: NO PROFIT FOR HEALTH INSURERS.
The public are merely mistaken and imagining it.
They can charge what they want- it’s private business
Maybe if they had a correctly functioning health system there would be no need for them to exist
then say lessons will be learnt but in 200 year time
Why? There’s a public system, you don’t have have to go private. The real scandal is that the two systems are ingratiated. People who pay get to skip the que in the same hospitals as people who don’t. They should be completely separate
Government own VHI, so I already know how this going to go
My premiums are rising every single year – but I’m afraid to be without it
“Yep, that’s a lot of profit” – the findings
Isn’t that what the financial regulator is already meant to be doing?
2024 VHI took €1.88B in premiums and had a surplus of €36.3M, meaning a profit margin of 1.9%
Need to look beyond insurers for the rising cost of healthcare, people here just want to give out about insurers because they’re the ones they pay
How about investigating the 3000 different convoluted policies that are impossible to differentiate from each other. HIA website is completely useless.

So same ole government as always
Move along nothing found nothing to see here .
Zero change at all cos some blind cunt will be doing the audit
No need for health insurance in this country.
They do it every year and report on it to the EU- its a condition of the EU approval of the risk equalisation scheme which caps the profit of every entity that participates in it.
My insurer used to give me 70-90% back for my visits,now im lucky to get 25%.
