Osecac says monotributo and health insurance accounts no longer balance

Accountant Nicolás Boglione analyzed Osecac's claim, the commerce health insurance provider, regarding costs to maintain health coverage for self-employed taxpayers. He highlighted the difference between contributions from independent workers and inflows from dependent employees. He warned that the current system is outdated in today's labor market.

Accountant Nicolás Boglione reviewed Osecac's position, the health insurance for the commerce sector, which states that maintaining health coverage for self-employed taxpayers is no longer financially viable. His analysis points to a significant gap between contributions from independent workers, such as monotributistas, and the revenues from dependent employees. Boglione stressed that this model, from a different labor context, has become obsolete amid changes in the current job market, where self-employment is rising. Osecac argues these financial imbalances threaten the system's sustainability.
