wtf… OP why is this flagged as NSFW? It’s not NSFW.
On topic: While I like having a health system that works, I do resent paying so much for something I never fricken use. Im sure I will appreciate it more when I am older though.

To be the devil’s advocate, I still much prefer Swiss private healthcare to the Canadian and Belgian ones (having lived in all three places).

As long as there is a compulsory insurance, the cost will only increase. This is a lot of money and everyone is praying on it. Hospitals, doctors, insurance companies, pharma companies, intermediaries, etc. Of course there isn’t enough money and next year they’ll ask for more.

I would prefer not to pay at all in advance and just pay whatever I need to pay whenever I need an appointment or medical care. This crap is crazy. I pay over 4K a year for basic insurance with the highest deductible and have right to basically nothing. Zero. We have zero salary increases, rents are skyrocketing, electricity just went up 40% this year where I live. I honestly don’t understand what we’re expected to do…

Having recently been in hospital here in Switzerland and comparing this to Germany – it’s a difference like day and night.
I know that Swiss health insurance is expensive for many people, but I really think it’s fair if you put this into relation of the quality it has.
I am certain there is a lot of space for savings, which is logical given this is a Kanton based system which probably creates immense redundancies. Just don’t mess the system up when trying to reduce costs.
