FOMS Employees in Kyrgyzstan to See Higher Bonuses and Presidential Payments from September

Kyrgyzstan's Cabinet of Ministers has approved changes to the remuneration for employees of the Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund (FOMS) who are not considered civil servants. These adjustments are set to take effect on September 1, 2026.

The maximum bonus for the complexity, intensity, and results of work will be doubled, increasing from 25% to 50% of an employee's base salary. This aims to incentivize and reward high performance within the fund.

Additionally, a new monthly presidential compensation payment of 15,000 Kyrgyz soms per full-time position will be introduced for core FOMS personnel who are not state employees. This payment is intended to enhance the financial well-being of these essential workers.

However, this compensation will not be factored into calculations for bonuses, health improvement allowances, the thirteenth salary, or regional and high-altitude coefficients. The payment will only be disbursed for periods of actual work performed. The decision aligns with a presidential decree aimed at improving compensation for certain public sector employees.
