Local health insurance
Switzerland requires all residents to have health insurance. Benefits are extensive, but the premiums are very expensive. Additional insurance can further increase costs; worldwide coverage is not automatically included.
International health insurance
Those who travel frequently outside of Switzerland or want to save on expensive local premiums may consider an international policy. This gives you worldwide coverage and can include repatriation or exclusive private services.
