Information about hospitals without collective agreements (hospital lists)
With private or semi-private supplementary hospital insurance from Sympany, you enjoy a free choice of all hospitals and doctors across Switzerland. However, we require that the hospital, institution or non-resident doctor you choose has concluded a collective agreement with us.
Collective agreements improve quality and lower costs
Sympany makes every effort to keep increases in healthcare costs, and therefore your premiums, as low as possible. But quality of treatment is, of course, our top priority. With the aim of keeping premiums as low as possible for all insured persons, Sympany therefore conducts regular tariff negotiations with each individual hospital, just like every other health insurance company.
Sometimes, however, the price expectations are too far apart or the prices demanded for the additional services in the private and semi-private departments are not justified. In this case, a collective agreement can temporarily not be concluded. This means that Sympany does not cover the costs for certain supplementary insurance benefits or for individual departments in the hospital concerned, or only up to a certain upper limit.
The information published on these pages is for information purposes only and does not constitute a commitment to provide cover for treatment.
