Abstract

Die Debatte über eine Finanzierungsreform des deutschen Krankenversicherungssystems hat in der letzten Zeit viele Konzepte hervorgebracht. Die Vorschläge reichen von der Stabilisierung des Status quo in Form von Kopfpauschalen über die Einführung verschiedener Formen eines Teilkapitaldeckungsverfahrens bis hin zu einer kompletten Systemumstellung auf eine voll kapitalgedeckte Finanzierung. Zusätzlich wurde das Modell der Medical Savings Accounts in Singapur und Südafrika als internationales Konzept thematisiert. Der vorliegende Beitrag soll einerseits einen Überblick über die derzeit diskutierten Modelle geben. Andererseits wird der Versuch unternommen, die Konzepte anhand der Kategorien Beitragsbemessungsprinzip und Finanzierungsverfahren zu systematisieren und einer kurzen Beurteilung zu unterziehen. Dabei lag der Fokus der Arbeit auf den Vorschlägen zur Reform der Finanzierungsseite. Inwiefern sich eines der Modelle durchsetzen kann, wird nicht zuletzt von den politischen Konstellationen der nächsten Jahre abhängen. In dem korporatistischen deutschen Gesundheitswesen dürfte die Durchsetzung revolutionärer Ideen relativ unwahrscheinlich sein. Nach Einschätzung der Autoren ist eher eine evolutorische Weiterentwicklung des bestehenden Systems zu erwarten.
