Everyone with a basic insurance with health insurer DSW will pay 3.25 euros per month more next year, bringing the premium to 127.75 euros. Every year DSW is the first insurer to offer the basic premium for next year. The increase is partly caused by the increasing use of expensive medicines and wage increases in healthcare.
