The Compulsory Health Insurance (Zvw) statutory contribution has been lowered to 5.45%. The contribution in 2019 was 5.7%. The HPF deducts the income-dependent Zvw contribution from the gross pension payments. This means that in 2020 you will receive a slightly higher pension. However, it is also possible that on the basis of the aforementioned tax bracket changes you could receive a lower net pension. Note, that the maximum amount over which you pay the income-dependent Zvw contribution has been increased to € 57,232. In 2019 this was 55,927. In other words, the deduction also changes even if your gross pension doesn’t.
