Basic insurance in Plan-les-Ouates: choosing insurer, deductible and model
Three decisions drive your premium in Plan-les-Ouates. First, the insurer: with legally identical benefits, it is the biggest lever for saving. Second, the deductible (300 to 2’500 CHF a year): if you rarely see a doctor and hold a reserve, the high deductible is usually the better deal; with regular treatment, choose the low one. For comparison: with a 2’500 CHF deductible, the adult premium in Plan-les-Ouates starts as low as 476 francs a month. Third, the model: family-doctor, HMO or telemedicine models cut the premium significantly compared with free choice of doctor.
Mind the deadlines: for a switch on 1 January, the cancellation must have reached the old insurer by 30 November — what counts is receipt, not the postmark. And check the premium subsidy in the canton of Geneva: the entitlement goes surprisingly often unclaimed.
Checklist for Plan-les-Ouates
- Compare every autumn: insurers adjust their rates each year.
