Cantonal premiums and residence: reading this comparison

These figures concern insurance for Swiss residents: Neuchâtel, adults (age 26-30) age bracket, year 2026, median CHF 651.10/month and range CHF 614.80–760.40. They are not premiums for cross-border workers resident in Italy. Compare matching premium region, age, deductible, accident cover and model; a group median is not a personal quote.

Italy-resident LAMal policyholders pay country-of-residence premiums with standard insurance and the ordinary deductible; HMO, Telmed and optional deductibles are unavailable. The right of option depends on citizenship and residence. Eligible workers choosing the SSN must formally request exemption from the competent authority in their canton of employment within three months of starting their contract; SSN registration alone is insufficient. The choice cannot be changed freely: check any new circumstances with the canton.

LAMal-insured people resident in Italy receive form S1 from their insurer and register it with the competent Italian healthcare institution to access care under the rules of their country of residence.

During a temporary stay in Switzerland, people entitled to use the EHIC can receive medically necessary public healthcare, taking account of the treatment and length of stay, on the conditions and at the costs applicable to locally insured people. This is not limited to emergencies and is not necessarily free. The EHIC does not cover travel for planned treatment, private care or repatriation; planned treatment and care in the country of residence follow separate procedures to check beforehand with the ASL and insurer. Eligibility also depends on insurance affiliation and citizenship: do not assume every card can be used in Switzerland.
