Swica basic insurance

Individuals can take out compulsory health insurance with Swica health insurance. Swica’s basic insurance is available in two different tariffs. The standard model gives insured persons a free choice of doctor without restrictions. The amount of the premium depends on the deductible. With the Favorit model, you can lower your insurance premiums. In return, the model specifies the contact person who should be contacted first in the event of illness.
In the FAVORIT CASA model, contact your doctor first in the event of treatment and refer you to a specialist if necessary.
The FAVORIT MEDICA model offers you the option of selecting a doctor from the list of doctors.
With the FAVORIT MEDPHARM model, the first point of contact is the partner’s pharmacy or santé24.
If you choose a FAVORIT SANTE plan, please contact the Medbase Health Center or the Group Clinic (HMO) first.
The FAVORIT TELMED telemedicine model allows you to contact the santé24 hotline in the event of illness. If necessary, your medical staff will refer you to your doctor or hospital.
