Health insurance comparison in Germany: how to choose your Krankenkasse<\/h2>\n

The German public health system (GKV) has more than 90 Krankenkassen<\/strong>. They all cover the same basic medical services regulated by law, but they differ in monthly cost<\/strong>, additional services and customer service quality. That is why it pays to compare before choosing an insurer.<\/p>\n

Our health insurance comparison tool for Germany<\/strong> instantly shows you how much you would pay with each Krankenkasse based on your gross monthly salary. The contribution is calculated on your salary and split 50\/50 between you and your employer: the general GKV rate is 14.6%, to which each insurer adds its own Zusatzbeitrag<\/strong>. That additional percentage is what makes the difference in price between one Krankenkasse and another.<\/p>\n

In addition to comparing prices, on this page you will find a detailed analysis of the main Krankenkassen<\/strong> (TK, DAK, BARMER, IKK Classic, SBK and AOK) with their advantages, weak points, coverage and ideal profile.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

Krankenkassen Comparison 2026<\/h2>\n

Enter your gross monthly salary and instantly calculate how much you would pay with each insurer. The rate reflects only the employee's share<\/strong> (the employer pays the same amount).<\/p>\n\n

\n You are in the Midijob bracket (\u20ac603.01 \u2013 \u20ac2,000).<\/strong>\n

In this bracket, thanks to the \u00dcbergangsbereich<\/em> rule, your real employee contribution is lower<\/strong> than what the comparison tool shows: the figures below are a maximum reference. The exact calculation is done with a progressive formula that reduces your share and increases the employer's share. If you want to know your real contribution, ask us with no commitment<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
