The insurer says the average increase will be about 3 per cent and will come into effect from March 1st.
VHI’s Chief Executive John O’Dwyer says he recognises the enormous financial pressures facing customers – but says they’ve been forced to make the changes because of the new charge on private patients using public hospital beds.
Health analysts believe the increase will see a family of two adults and two children paying between 50 euro and 250 euro extra per year on their insurance.
