Arcosana in the canton of Obwalden

Arcosana disappeared from the official file after 2022. In the canton of Obwalden its last known premium was CHF 340.00 a month, for an adult with a CHF 300 deductible and accident cover.

What it costs today

In the same place, the cheapest insurer in 2026 is Agrisano, at CHF 382.80 a month. That is the price a former Arcosana policyholder should compare against what they actually pay — an automatic transfer puts nobody with the cheapest.

The market average there is CHF 446.09: someone who does not compare pays CHF 759.48 more per year.

What it had done with its prices

Where did the portfolio go?

We do not say, because we do not know it from an official source. The FOPH publishes premiums, not portfolio transfers. Your current policy and statements carry the name of the insurer covering you today: that is the only reliable answer, and it is in your own paperwork.
