What is the Höchstbeitrag for German health insurance?

The cost of public health insurance is based on your income. If you have a high income, your health insurance is more expensive.

The Höchstbeitrag is the maximum cost for public health insurance. If you earn more than than €66,150 per month, the price does not go higher. The minimum cost is called the Mindestbeitrag.

The Höchstbeitrag for employees is €600 per month. The Höchstbeitrag for self-employed people is €1,200 per month.

There is no Höchstbeitrag for private health insurance, because the price is not based on your income.
