Abstract

The UK has announced a new health and social care levy that will see national insurance contributions rise by 1.25% for both employees and employers. Bernard H Casey draws on the experiences of Germany and Japan, where contributions dedicated to paying for care are raised. He also assesses whether a better approach may be possible.
