Dr. Jens Baas will remain chairman of the Techniker Krankenkasse (TK) for another six-year term. This is the result of the election (September 18, 20) by the company's board of directors. The volunteer members of TK's highest decision-making body voted unanimously for the re-election of Baas, who has headed the company's board since 2012 and has been a board member since 2011.

“As the Board of Directors of TK, we are now looking at a company that has been able to convince a large number of insured people in recent years. TK has undergone numerous successful changes and is very well positioned with regard to future developments and challenges. We look forward to continuing our good, constructive and trusting collaboration with Dr. Jens Baas,” explained the alternating chairman of the TK board of directors, Dominik Kruchen.

“Today, our healthcare system is faced with many opportunities, for example when it comes to innovative care and digitalization - but also before major challenges, for example when it comes to financing. I am very much looking forward to continuing to get involved in the interests of our more than 10.6 million TK insured people and working together with 14,000 employees for our insured people. I would like to thank the board of directors for the trust they have placed in me,” said Baas, referring to his third term as chairman of the TK board.
