What are the immediate consequences of the delay in launching Armenia's national health insurance program?

Armenia's planned launch of a national health insurance program, initially slated for July 2024 for public sector employees, has been postponed. The program's rollout will now be phased, including state employees in 2025, the private sector in 2026, and 95% of the population by 2027. The government will subsidize 30-40% of the insurance premium for those with annual incomes below 300,000 AMD, while employed citizens will pay 13,700 AMD monthly.
