Alternative and complementary medicine in Frauenfeld

Key points at a glance

In Frauenfeld (postal code 8500), a municipality of roughly 27’099 residents in the canton of Thurgau, one rule stands out: unlike basic insurance, supplementary cover is a FREE market.

The range of supplementary policies is the same everywhere — your profile sets the price, not your address.

Supplementary insurance (LCA) in Frauenfeld: what matters

Unlike basic insurance, supplementary cover is a free contractual product: each insurer defines its own benefits, premiums and conditions. Two policies at the same price can cover very differently in Frauenfeld — for hospital stays (private/semi-private, free choice of doctor), dental treatment, complementary medicine, glasses or maternity. So compare benefit by benefit against your actual needs, not just on price.

Two things to know: supplementary insurance is optional and can be taken out or cancelled independently of basic insurance. And the insurer may — unlike under the LAMal — ask health questions, add exclusions or reject an application. So sign up while young and healthy, and answer the health questions truthfully (otherwise you risk losing benefits).
