Public health insurer says state will have to chip in

Ljubljana, 10 April - The Health Insurance Institute (ZZZS), which manages public health insurance, expects the coronovarus crisis to slash its revenue by around EUR 215 million this year, while higher expenditure is expected on top of that, to the tune of EUR 30 million due to higher sick leave costs alone. It has urged the government to cover the shortfall.
