The other cantons
Why the premium is what it is here
Care reimbursed by basic insurance costs CHF 4'389 per insured person per year in Glarus.
The Swiss average is CHF 4'834.
Glarus is the 15th most expensive canton for healthcare costs out of 26. The premium follows from that: no insurer can durably charge less than it reimburses.
These costs have changed by +31.7 % since 2016 in this canton, against +28.4 % for the Swiss average.
Across the 26 cantons, the cost of care explains 88.5 % of the premium gap. In other words: much of the difference with the neighbouring canton cannot be recovered by switching insurer.
