Key points at a glance
This page is written for residents of Davos, in the canton of Graubünden, who want to understand, compare and optimise their health insurance. Basic health insurance (KVG/LAMal) is compulsory, and by law its benefits are identical at every insurer: in Davos, the real way to save is choosing the insurer, the deductible and the insurance model — not cutting cover.
What sets your premium is your FOPH premium region (Davos belongs to region 2 in the canton of Graubünden) — your state of health is irrelevant, because basic insurance carries an obligation to accept every applicant. Davos has roughly 10’862 residents — and every insured person is free to choose their own insurer. Further down are the actual 2026 premiums for Davos, practical tips and a free, no-obligation comparison.

Basic insurance in Davos: choosing insurer, deductible and model
You steer your premium in Davos with three levers. The insurer first — it costs nothing in benefits and brings the most. Then the deductible between 300 and 2’500 CHF: high deductible for healthy people with a financial cushion, low deductible for ongoing treatment or planned procedures. For comparison: with a 2’500 CHF deductible, the adult premium in Davos starts as low as 307 francs a month. Finally the insurance model: family-doctor, HMO or telemedicine are noticeably cheaper than 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 Graubünden: the entitlement goes surprisingly often unclaimed.
Checklist for Davos
- Compare every autumn: insurers adjust their rates each year.
- Match the deductible to your own health profile (work out 300 vs. 2’500 CHF).
- Consider an alternative model (family-doctor, HMO, telemedicine) — same basic benefits, lower premium.
