On May 9, 2025, the FIN-FSA confirmed the new rules of ABB:n vakuutuskassa with the following changes:
- The initial annual deductible for medicines is reimbursed at EUR 20 after the initial deductible (EUR 70) has been paid.
- You can also apply for spectacle compensation (300 EUR every three years) in parts. This enables e.g. better replacement of leasing contracts and contact lens packages.
- Dental care reimbursement will increase to 300 EUR / year (previously 250 EUR).
- The reimbursement for prosthodontic treatment will increase to 400 EUR (the review period is five years as before, the reimbursement was previously 337 EUR).
- The compensation paid as a funeral grant will increase to 2000 EUR (previously 1000 EUR) and the compensation will now be paid to the estate of the deceased.
- In addition, from 1 January 2026, medicines prescribed by a doctor, clinical nutritional preparations, equivalent products and basic creams will be fully reimbursed when compensation has also been received under the Health Insurance Act. Until then, the compensation is 90%.
Compensation can be paid according to the new rules for costs incurred on or after May 9, 2025. However, you can apply for reimbursement for the initial annual deductible for medicines retroactively for this year if the initial deductible has already been paid previously. The official rules will be updated on the website later.
