The CNS has published its annual report for 2025. The number of insured persons rose by 1.4% on the previous year to close to 987,000, and over the same period expenditure grew more sharply than revenue.

With outgoings of €4.88 billion and revenue of €4.78 billion, the year closed with a deficit of some €102 million. Expenditure on outpatient treatments in Luxembourg, in particular, has climbed considerably.

To shore up the fund's finances over the longer term, a strategic working group has already put forward a first set of proposals.

The system of so-called Immediate Direct Payment (PID) is developing positively. Over the past six months, around 70% of consultations with doctors and dentists have been billed through the scheme. More than 2,500 of the roughly 3,500 doctors and dentists in the country are also taking part.
