Healthy fund

Healthy fund is one new idea from Croatian Health Employers Association. They devoloped idea based on prevention of disieses based on smoking. One box of cigaretes would be 3-5 kunas more expensive then now in next 3 years, and all the money that is collected would be transfered in Croatian health insurence fund, and given to hospitals to heal people who have health problems because of smoking. In their calculations Croatian hospitals would get new 1,5 billions kunas, and also many people would stop smoking, and tobaco consumption would be smaller more then 5%. New money is very important for Croatian health system because they have big debts, and in near future many citizens could lose their health care.
