Right or Wrong
 

It looks as if a decision will be made shortly as to whether the Germans can get some of your military pension towards your medical treatment. Do you think they should be able to raid our military pension?

I have a military pension? :unsure: That is great news! :thumbsup:

Why is this in The Welcome Inn? :confused:

Re: Right or Wrong
 

Please note...the Welcome Inn is purely a place for new members to introduce themselves. I have therefore moved your thread over to the Germany forum.

Is this discussion about the payment of premiums for a "state/government" run medical system?

If so, then in the US, your monthly premium payment for your Medicare health system (the one for seniors) is based on your total income - employment, pensions, nonemployment income etc - so not surprising that the German government will base your premiums on your income (including your pension).

Let me ask

Is this someone getting a pension from outside Germany who is now required to pay for the "Krankenkasse" while resident in germany ?
