Companies whose employees are not subject to KVG/LAMal
Swiss or foreign companies established in Switzerland whose staff is exempt from the Swiss social security system
Employees who are exempt from membership of the Swiss social security system need full cover; this is known as first CHF cover.
Each case is unique. UNIQA has developed a tailor-made solution to ensure that each individual can benefit from insurance that is as effective as KVG/LAMal coverage plus supplementary insurance.
Enrolment is generally without medical questionnaire, waiting period or exclusion on the grounds of pre-existing condition (i.e. a pathology predating enrolment). Contracts are simply administered, with enrolment and de-enrolment requests made via a secure platform.
The Swiss Federal Health Insurance Act (KVG/LAMal) governs compulsory health insurance in Switzerland. Under this law, every citizen must be insured against the risks associated with illness and accidents. Citizens are free to choose the insurance company authorized to provide social health insurance.
Another federal law governs private insurance.
