Swiss Health Insurance Premiums Surge

Published: 2024-10-04

Swiss health insurance premiums are set to rise by an average of 6% in 2025, prompting many policyholders to consider switching providers before the November 30 deadline.

Concordia and Helsana emerge as the most affordable options, with Concordia leading in 18 of 42 premium regions.

Meanwhile, CSS faces challenges with a significant drop in premium rankings and a low solvency rate of 84%.

The volatility in the market is expected to result in a high switch rate of 8-12%, affecting up to 1.1 million policyholders.

This trend highlights the increasing price sensitivity among Swiss consumers as they navigate the complex insurance landscape.
