The responsibility for the organisation, definition and financing structure of the national social insurance and health systems lies with the Member States. Nevertheless, the European Union policies, especially in the field of economic governance through the European Semester, increasingly affect social security reform programs. How can we achieve a reasonable balance between necessary economic governance and delivering on the European Pillar of Social Rights while fully respecting national traditions and competences? How much Europe is needed? And how important is “getting it right” for the future of European integration?
