Cum pot recupera pensionarii CASS reținut la pensie? De ce au sanse mici în instanță? Salvarea poate fi la CCR • Newsweek România

Pensioners in Romania are contesting the mandatory health insurance contributions (CASS) deducted from their pensions, particularly affecting those with pensions over 3,000 lei. Despite numerous lawsuits filed against the Pension House, no pensioner has successfully recovered these amounts in court. The legal basis for CASS deductions is rooted in the fiscal code, making it challenging to win cases against the government. However, there is hope as the Constitutional Court (CCR) is set to review the constitutionality of CASS for higher pensions, with a decision expected by October 26. The outcome could determine if the current taxation is fair and if pensioners can reclaim their contributions.
