How the LAMal premium works in this bracket
Under Swiss LAMal law, every resident must hold a basic health insurance. The premium varies by canton, premium region and health fund, but it is flat across all adults aged 26 and over — there is no age-based increase inside LAMal itself (unlike supplementary LCA cover). In Zug for 2026, the median for bracket adults (age 31-45) is 402.40 CHF/month. Cross-border workers living in Italy can elect either the Swiss LAMal or the Italian SSN under the "right of option" — this choice depends on age, health status, residence and family situation and should be evaluated with a licensed adviser. Use the table above to identify the cheapest funds in the age bracket and compare them using our interactive comparator below.

Cantonal premiums and residence: reading this comparison
These figures concern insurance for Swiss residents: Zug, adults (age 31-45) age bracket, year 2026, median CHF 402.40/month and range CHF 364.60–516.90. 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.

Do cross-border workers pay LAMal?
Cross-border workers in Switzerland have the "right of option" — they can choose Swiss LAMal or stay on the Italian SSN (or the German/French/Austrian system). LAMal choosers pay the same premium as a Swiss resident; SSN choosers stay covered in Italy. The option must be exercised within 3 months of starting work.
Does the premium change with age?
Under LAMal the premium is flat for all adults from 26 onwards — it does not rise with age. Children (0-18) and young adults (19-25) pay less by law. Supplementary LCA cover, on the other hand, does rise with age.
