Visana Med Direct — Region 1, Vaud

Region 1, Vaud: the Med Direct model from Visana costs CHF 641.70 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 641.70, Med Direct is not the lowest premium here: Atupri goes down to CHF 570.10. A named model does not guarantee the best price — it guarantees a care pathway.

On average, Med Direct costs CHF 1'048.80 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.
