response: "Response from the Ministry of Health\nCompulsory and supplementary health\
  \ insurance is regulated by the Health Care and Health Insurance Act (Official Journal\
  \ of the Republic of Slovenia, No. 72/06 - Official consolidated text, 114/06 -\
  \ ZUTPG, 91/07, 76/08, 62/10 - ZUJPS, 87/11, 40/12 - ZUJF and 21/13 - ZUTD-A: hereinafter\
  \ referred to as \"ZZVZZ\"). From its introduction in 1993 until 1999, the Supplementary\
  \ Health Insurance (hereinafter: SHI) was issued by the Health Insurance Institute\
  \ of Slovenia (Zavod za zdravstveno zavarovanje Slovenije) in addition to the insurance\
  \ company Adriatic Slovenica. In 1999, an amendment to the ZZVZZ (Official Gazette\
  \ of the RS, No 29/98) established a separate company for the implementation of\
  \ this insurance, in order to make the operation more transparent and to comply\
  \ with the principle that private insurance should be implemented in a separate\
  \ institution, since the Zavod za zdravstveno zavarovanje Slovenije (Health Insurance\
  \ Institution of Slovenia) provides compulsory health insurance, which is financed\
  \ through a contribution rate, i.e. from public funds. The Zavod za zdravstveno\
  \ zavarovanje Slovenije kept separate accounting and other records for supplementary\
  \ health insurance, in full compliance with the regulations of the time, and audits\
  \ were also carried out by commercial auditing firms, not the Court of Auditors.\
  \ The Health Insurance Institution of Slovenia kept separate accounting and other\
  \ records for supplementary health insurance, in full compliance with the regulations\
  \ of the time, and the audits were also carried out by commercial audit firms, not\
  \ the Court of Auditors. On 1 November 1999, the Health Insurance Institute of Slovenia\
  \ established Vzajemna, d.v.z., a mutual insurance company, and transferred the\
  \ entire portfolio of insured persons for supplementary health insurance to it.\n\
  According to the current insurance legislation, supplementary health insurance is\
  \ property insurance, which can only be carried out by commercial insurance companies.\
  \ In accordance with the Health Insurance Act, the Health Insurance Institute of\
  \ Slovenia provides only compulsory health insurance.\n "
