Expat health insurance for Switzerland: cover while living abroad or at home
Our international health insurance plans for Switzerland provide top-up cover to the mandatory Swiss Health Insurance – to cover you when you are in Switzerland and when you are away.
Our expat health insurance for Switzerland includes cover for a wide range of in-patient and day-care treatments as well as an optional level of cover such as out-patient, dental, maternity and repatriation benefits. Our plans also include treatment for Covid-19.
Your cover is also subject to:
- Policy definitions and exclusions
- Any special conditions shown on your Insurance Certificate (and on the Special Condition Form issued before the policy comes into effect, where relevant).
- Any policy endorsements, policy terms and conditions and any other legal requirements.
- Costs being reasonable and customary in accordance with country of treatment, standard and generally accepted medical procedures. If we consider a claim to be inappropriate, we reserve the right to decline or reduce the amount we pay.
Sanctions suspension clause:
Any benefits, cover and claims payments are suspended if any element of the cover, benefit, activity, business, or underlying business exposes us to:
- any applicable sanction, prohibition or restriction under the United Nations’ resolutions, or
- the trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations of the European Union, United Kingdom, or United States of America.
The above suspension will continue until such time as we are no longer exposed to any such sanction, prohibition, or restriction.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can receive treatment in any country within your geographical area of cover, as shown in your Insurance Certificate*.
- If the treatment you need is available locally but you choose to travel to another country in your area of cover, we will reimburse all eligible medical costs incurred within the terms of your policy, except for your travel expenses.
- If the eligible treatment is not available locally, and your cover includes “Medical evacuation”, we will also cover travel costs to the nearest suitable medical facility (in some cases travel costs are limited to emergency treatments only, depending on the benefit included in your member plan). To claim for medical and travel expenses incurred in these circumstances, you will need to submit a completed Pre-authorisation Form and receive our approval before travelling.
You can access your Insurance Certificate and Pre-authorisation Form through the Home page of the MyHealth app or portal, simply click on “View Policy” and then go to “Documents”. Done! You have now access to your documents.
*Our policies don’t provide any cover or benefit for any business or activity to the extent that either the cover or benefit or the underlying business or activity would violate any applicable sanction law or regulations of the United Nations, the European Union or any other applicable economic or trade sanction law or regulations.
Your dependents can be added to your international health insurance policy subject to the medical underwriting terms you accepted; either full medical underwriting or Moratorium. They would be subject to their own premium which would be derived from their age, cost of healthcare in the primary country of residence and any special condition that may be applied to the policy.
