Key points at a glance
This page explains to residents of Wollerau how supplementary insurance (LCA/VVG) works — the optional top-up to basic insurance for hospital stays (private/semi-private, free choice of doctor), dental treatment, complementary medicine, glasses, maternity or prevention.
In Wollerau (postal code 8832), a municipality of roughly 7’255 residents in the canton of Schwyz, a close look pays off: supplementary insurance falls under the LCA and is a free market — each insurer sets its own benefits, premiums and conditions. What matters is comparing by real need rather than by the lowest price; and because health questions are allowed, the rule is: sign up early and in good health. Commuting between Wollerau and a nearby municipality (Richterswil (2 km), Feusisberg (2 km), Freienbach (3 km))? The range of supplementary policies is the same everywhere — your profile sets the price, not your address.

Supplementary insurance (LCA) in Wollerau: what matters
With supplementary insurance, freedom of contract applies: each insurer sets its own benefits, rates and conditions. In Wollerau, two equally priced contracts can protect you completely differently — for example the hospital ward (private or semi-private), the dentist, complementary medicine, vision aids or maternity. The right yardstick is your real need, cover by cover.
Two ground rules: first, supplementary insurance is not compulsory — it can be signed or cancelled separately from basic insurance. Second, the provider may check your health and set exclusions or decline; those who sign up young and healthy and answer the health questions precisely secure the best terms.
Check before you sign
- Your real priorities: hospital, dental, complementary medicine, glasses, maternity?
- Annual limits, waiting periods and exclusions of each benefit.
- Avoid double cover (e.g. with employer or credit-card benefits).
- How the premium develops with age, and the cancellation terms.
