Hospital: insured benefits

Whether it’s a planned hospital stay or an emergency admission – our insurance means you are optimally covered. You can find all insured benefits for outpatient and inpatient treatment in hospital here.

Basic insurance

  • Hospital stays in Switzerland: 100% of costs, up to the maximum tariff for your canton of residence – less hospital cost contribution, deductible and excess– for the stay, care and treatment in a general ward (multi-bed room)
  • Hospital: you have a free choice among all the hospitals in Switzerland on the cantonal hospital lists (known as “listed hospitals”)
  • Hospital stays abroad: in the case of inpatient emergency treatment in EU and EFTA countries, benefits are paid in accordance with the social insurance system in the country where you are staying. In all other countries abroad, a maximum of twice the amount of costs is covered which would be incurred in Switzerland for the same treatment.
