Premium calculator: the cheapest Swiss health insurers for your postal code

Within the same premium region, the gap between the cheapest and most expensive insurer is often 30–40% — for legally identical basic cover. Three inputs is all it takes.

Same cover, different price

The same basic cover at every insurer, price is the difference

Basic insurance (KVG/LAMal) benefits are identical by law.

After the calculation

From result to switch in four steps

The calculator shows what is possible. These steps turn it into a lower premium from 1 January 2027.

  1. Note the cheapest insurers

    Put the three cheapest offers next to what you pay today. Pick your current insurer in the result and you see the possible saving per year.

  2. Check deductible and model

    A higher deductible and a family doctor, HMO or Telmed model lower the premium further. Tap a model in the result to compare prices side by side.

  3. Sort out supplementary cover

    Basic and supplementary insurance can be with different insurers. Never cancel supplementary cover before the new policy is confirmed in writing.

  4. Cancel by 30 November

    Your notice for basic insurance has to reach your insurer by 30 November, ideally by registered post. The new insurer then covers you from 1 January.

FAQ

Premium calculator — FAQ

Where do the premiums come from?

Directly from the official 2027 premium data approved by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH dataset "Krankenversicherungsprämien" on opendata.swiss) and the official postcode → premium region mapping. These are exactly the premiums you would pay directly at each insurer — broker commissions do not change your premium.

Why is the cheapest insurer not automatically the best?

Basic insurance (KVG/LAMal) benefits are identical by law — differences are in service, billing, English-language support, apps, and how readily claims are approved. And if you later want supplementary cover, it can pay to optimise basic and supplementary separately. That is exactly what we check in the free consultation.

What does "with/without accident cover" mean?

If you are employed at least 8 hours per week, your employer already insures you against accidents (UVG) and you can exclude accident cover from your health insurance — saving a few percent. Self-employed and non-working people need it included.

Which deductible should I choose?

Rule of thumb: healthy and rarely at the doctor → CHF 2,500; regular treatment → CHF 300. Depending on the insurer, the break-even is around CHF 1,900 to 2,000 of yearly costs. Our franchise calculator works out your exact tipping point.

Until when can I switch with these premiums?

These are 2027 premiums (published by the Federal Office of Public Health on 29 September 2026). To switch from 1 January 2027, your cancellation must reach your current insurer by 30 November 2026.
