Your advantages with SWICA’s supplementary outpatient insurance
Our supplementary outpatient insurance plans offer targeted cover for more flexibility and comprehensive care in your daily life. You choose what treatments, medications and preventive healthcare services best suit you, giving you comprehensive protection and allowing you to focus entirely on your wellbeing.
What does basic insurance cover when it comes to outpatient treatments?
Basic insurance covers the following benefits in the event of outpatient treatment:
- Basic medical care and medically necessary treatments
- Costs for medicines on the special medicines list
- Maternity benefits such as pregnancy check-ups, certain examinations, preparation for birth and follow-up care
- Certain preventive check-ups and vaccinations in accordance with the schedule
- Emergency treatment in Switzerland or abroad (within the scope of statutory requirements)
Many important benefits such as alternative therapies, additional preventive check-ups, more extensive preventive healthcare services and contributions towards visual aids are not covered at all or only covered to some extent, however.
Supplementary outpatient insurance from SWICA is aimed at closing these gaps, and you also get more comprehensive benefits, greater flexibility, and individual support to optimise your outpatient care.

The only provider in Switzerland to offset your costs
Have you already paid an excess or deductible under your basic insurance? We will automatically deduct this amount from the cost of your supplementary insurance. As soon as your payments reach the amount of your chosen co-payment, your insurance will immediately kick in – meaning you don’t end up paying twice.
