Terms of Service

What costs does the health insurance company cover?

The compulsory basic health insurance does not cover any treatment costs for psychological psychotherapy. Psychological psychotherapies FSP are unfortunately not yet considered a compulsory service within the framework of basic health insurance in Switzerland. Many health insurance companies cover part of the treatment costs on the basis of supplementary insurance and usually require a doctor's prescription or a referral before the start of treatment. Self-payers have the advantage that they have absolute discretion because reports and information about the course cannot be obtained from third parties such as doctors, health insurance companies and other institutions.
