How much does health insurance cost in Switzerland?
The answer
For an adult, the country’s lowest premium is CHF 335.10 a month and the national average CHF 534.59, with a 300-franc deductible and accident cover included.
Why
The price depends on three things only: where you live, your age, and the options you pick. It depends neither on your health nor on your income — the law forbids it.
The difference between paying your region’s minimum and the market average is a median of CHF 582.88 a year. That is what not comparing costs.
