Visana Med Direct — Region 1, Bern

Region 1, Bern: the Med Direct model from Visana costs CHF 597.30 a month for an adult with a CHF 300 deductible and accident cover, in 2026. The table below gives the whole grid: every age band, every deductible, with and without accident cover.

At CHF 597.30, Med Direct is not the lowest premium here: Visana goes down to CHF 540.10. A named model does not guarantee the best price — it guarantees a care pathway.

On average, Med Direct costs CHF 813.60 less per year than Visana's basic insurance in the same place, for exactly the same cover defined by law. In exchange, you accept the model's care pathway.

An alternative model commits you to a care pathway: check the conditions with the insurer before signing. This page gives a price, not advice.
